Wisconsin Recall Elections

The following is a blatant repeat of an email that asks for funding support for the recalls of republican state senators in Wisconsin. Time to put our money where our hearts are.

Wisconsin recall elections:

Public Policy Polling. June 24-26, likely voters:

Senate district 32, currently held by Republican Dan Kapanke
Jennifer Shilling (D): 56
Dan Kapanke (R): 42

Senate district 18, currently held by Republican Randy Hopper
Jessica King (D): 50
Randy Hopper (R): 47

Senate district 10, currently held by Republican Shelia Harsdorf
Sheila Harsdorf (R): 50
Shelly Moore (D): 45

Six Republicans face recall elections, and Democrats need to defeat three of them to take control of the state Senate. We have only polled three of those six races so far, and already we found Democrats ahead in two campaigns and close in another.

This is a very winnable campaign. If we win, then we prove that a people-powered uprising, when allied with a unified Democratic Party that is willing to fight back, can defeat those who would slash the social safety net to pay off billionaires and big corporations.

That is a win we need badly, both in Wisconsin and nationwide. Please, make it happen by contributing $1 to each of the Democratic candidates in the Wisconsin recall elections.

Hammer on Joe Wilson

This is my effort to support progressive echo chamber.... We know the right-wingers are great at being vocal. Here's an easy opportunity.

If you want to help hammer Congressman Joe Wilson for screaming, "You Lie!" during Obama's joint address to Congress on health care...

Former Marine Rob Miller is taking on Wilson, after coming relatively close to beating him in this conservative district in 2008. To win it this time, and send Joe Wilson packing, it’s going to take money.

Will Karl Rove be Brought Down by Ohio?

With new documentary evidence in hand, a new federal civil lawsuit has been filed Ohio election attorneys, Cliff Arnebeck, Bob Fitrakis and Henry Eckhart. They will use the discover process take depositions from Rove’s computer consultant Michael Connell, Karl Rove, Michael Connell, Jack Abramoff, Michael Scanlon, Bob Ney, Brett Rapp, Ken Blackwell and others. The information gathered will be shared with state and federal authorities for criminal prosecution.

Republican computer consultant Stephen Spoonamore is blowing the whistle. He has stated publicly that the leadership of the GOP has been "lying and stealing elections."

Much more could be said, and you can dig into it at The Velvet Revolution Web Site, but right now we need ACTION. This legal effort needs funding in anticipation of major retaliation by the Rove machine. Make a Secure Donation to prosecute Karl Rove.
