Local Republicans are excited to celebrate the victory many of them worked so hard to secure last November when President-elect Donald Trump is inaugurated for the second time. Trump won the Electoral College 312-226 over Vice President Kamala Harris, including 10 votes from Wisconsin. That marked only the second time in 40 years that Republicans carried Wisconsin for the Presidential ticket. Door County Republican Party Chairperson Stephanie Soucek says she could feel the enthusiasm for a Trump White House and expects it to hit a fever pitch next week when he takes the oath of office on the steps of the U.S. Capitol.

Soucek says she will be among the over 200,000 people expected to attend Inauguration Day, which includes the swearing-in ceremony, parade, and formal balls throughout Washington, D.C.
