Russ Feingold shows support in Oshkosh for Jessica King in recall election

[undeterred]

Count former U.S. Senator Russ Feingold among those who have answered Jessica King's call for supporters to do everything they can in the final days before the Aug. 9 recall election.

Feingold is the most recent Democrat to visit the 18th Senate District to support King's campaign to unseat state Sen. Randy Hopper, R-Empire, and help secure a Democratic majority in the Senate that would represent and support working families.

Feingold joined King for a lunchtime rally Wednesday on the Winnebago County Courthouse steps to encourage the Democratic candidate's supporters to vote early and help turn back "corporate powers' attempts to swallow up our democracy." In a phone interview later, Feingold said he specifically came to Oshkosh to support King "because we think this is a critical race and I like her very much."

Several members of the audience made the short walk over to Oshkosh City Hall to vote early, something hundreds of city residents have already done. Oshkosh City Clerk Pamela Ubrig said the number of absentee ballots sent out by mail and the number of early votes cast have already exceeded the 416 early votes and 941 absentee ballots mailed out before the July 12 primary.

1. Russ called the other day to talk About the recalls.

OK, OK it was a robocall, but I was certainly glad that he's taking an active role here.

2. I've been getting RW "issue" robocalls that recall after hanging up.

Btw JR-32nd District Senator Dan Kapanke is going to be replaced in the recall by JEN SHILLING!
You can take that prediction to the nearest privatized central bank!!
