On April 5th tilt WI Supreme Court left!

[savalez]

Norman Goldman pointed this out on his radio show.

There is an election on April 5th for a Supreme Court Judge. If Kloppenburg (D) wins, the Wisconsin Supreme Court will be tilted left. Right now Pubs hold 1 seat over Dems.

This will give WI Dems a fighting chance during challenges to any of Walker's shenanigans.

Kloppenburg's website is here: http://www.kloppenburgforjustice.com/

Quote from above link: "A vote for Assistant Attorney General Kloppenburg is a vote against Gov. Scott Walker."

I have also previously posted this in the General Discussion category but I thought it should go here instead just in case a Wisconsinite was unaware of it.

Disclosure: I am not from WI but I have been following this story closely and I am adamantly against what Walker is doing.

1. Just signed up to work on her campaign. FB all WI friends to encourage them

to vote on the 5th for her. Signs printed from website and in windows. Lets go folks. This is something we can do NOW

8. I like the idea of supreme court justices having to run for office.

2. A vote for Assistant Attorney General Kloppenburg is a vote against Gov. Scott Walker

My favorite saying at the moment.

3. This is a key election

If Prosser, a huge favorite and Republican, loses it will send shock waves throughout Wisconsin and the U.S. The Wisconsin Chamber of Commerce and other enemies of the people have spent tens of millions over the past ten years to make a supreme court in Wisconsin similar to the current U.S. Supreme Court. A vote for Kloppenburg is exceedingly important, and a win by Koppenburg on April 5, currently looking unlikely, will be a historic setback for the aristocracy and shake the heck out of all republican politicians.

4. I just met her today!

A candidate who thinks that judges should be impartial. What a novel idea.

5. I voted for her in the primary.

And I'm happy my choice for Dane county executive will be on the ballot in April: Joe Parisi
