Sanders thanked his audience for an "unbelievable turnout" and encouraged Republican Rep. Bryan Steil, who represents Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District, to hold a town hall meeting in the same arena at a later date.
Sanders has, in the past, filled Alliant Energy Center at around double that capacity. Kenosha also has less than half of Madison’s population. Proportionately, that’s very good, especially considering how red the area has been in the past.
