So Ryan's district in WI has a "Trump Conservative Party" candidate on the ballot.

Spencer Zimmerman. Did they arrange this in advance? Can you get on the ballot at the last minute there?

Hilarious if this results in Ryan's ouster. Any polling of this district?

If it were actually close then some deploreables voting for the Trump candidate could actually throw the race, but I'm not holding out hope.
