This just in from JoAnn Kloppenburg (who lost the spring SC election to Prosser)


Dear Friends,



I want my supporters to hear this exciting news first, from me: I will
be a candidate for an open seat on the Wisconsin Court of Appeals
(District 4).



The opening has been created by the retirement of Judge Margaret
Vergeront. Judge Vergeront has been a highly respected member of the
legal community for over 30 years and has served on the Court of Appeals
for 17 years.

Judge Vergeront's retirement creates a vacancy on the Court of Appeals
that will be filled by a non-partisan election this coming April.



The opportunity to serve Wisconsin residents as an appellate Judge would
be a great honor and fits well with my background and qualifications.
Wisconsin residents expect and deserve appellate judges who are fair and
impartial and whose decisions are based on the law and the facts. That
is the kind of judge I have pledged I will be.



My campaign committee will voluntarily limit all contributions to the
campaign to $1000 per individual or political action committee. The
$1000 limit follows the limits set by Wisconsin's previous public
financing laws and falls within guidelines recommended by national
groups. State law allows for contributions of $2500 per individual and
political action committee in the Court of Appeals race.



But justice should not be for sale and judicial elections ought to be
different. People need to have confidence in our courts and our judges.
Voluntarily limiting contributions will help send a clear message that I
will be an impartial decision maker.



We have much work to do before the election and I hope I can count on
your continued support and energy. To learn more about my candidacy,
please visit my website <http://www.kloppenburgforcourtofappeals.com/> .



I am honored to have earned your confidence and trust and I look forward
to having you stand with me during this upcoming campaign.



Sincerely,





JoAnne Kloppenburg

1. You mean JoAnne Kloppenburg, winner of the SC election?
You know it was rigged to holy hell by that wretched stooge Kathy Nickolaus and the corrupt GAB.

2. So then, you want to support a candidate without the guts to challenge election fraud?
She came close, but sometimes candidates we like lose.
