46% : The former president has continued to play an outsized role in the northeastern Wisconsin House race ahead of Tuesday's primary election as the three Republicans -- former state Sen. Roger Roth, state Sen. Andre Jacque and former gas station owner Tony Wied, whom Trump endorsed -- largely align with one another on GOP policy priorities.
