9. OFFS. She sure as fuck did campaign in MI.

Just some samplings of her GE campaign events in MI:

http://amp.usatoday.com/story/93356788/

And as far as WI, polls had her comfortably ahead, and the campaign decided the best use of resourcces was sending in surrogates, including Bernie Sanders, and focusing on the ground game to get those Hillary voters to the polls:

Hillary Clinton’s tack to win Wisconsin has been to stay far away and count on her supporters here — and a historically unpopular opponent — to carry the day.

Increasingly favorable poll numbers suggest it’s working. Clinton’s campaign says it is confident it is closing the sale with Badger State voters, and now is counting on its ground game to get those voters to the polls by Nov. 8.
...
Instead, Clinton’s campaign has held events with surrogates such as her husband, former President Bill Clinton, and Sanders, I-Vt., and Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. Clinton’s daughter, Chelsea Clinton, is scheduled to visit Madison, La Crosse and Stevens Point on Tuesday.
