39% of Union Households in Wisconsin Support WALKER???

54. I think I can explain this phenomena

42 Tommy Thompson January 5, 1987 February 1, 2001 Republican Scott McCallum 3 1⁄2

43 Scott McCallum February 1, 2001 January 6, 2003 Republican Margaret A. Farrow 1⁄2

44 Jim Doyle January 6, 2003 January 3, 2011 Democratic Barbara Lawton 2

45 Scott Walker January 3, 2011 Incumbent Republican Rebecca Kleefisch 1

------------------------------------------------------------

Notice how since 1987 Wisconsin has had a Republican governor the entire time except for when Dem Jim Doyle was governor from January 6, 2003 to January 3, 2011?

Not exactly sure if WI is like IL, but when it comes to hiring workers for good paying union state jobs here in Illinois the only way to get one is you have to know someone in politics. So when the Dems are in you will have Democrats getting these jobs. But when you have a GOP governor you are going to have Republicans getting these good union jobs. That is the way it is here in Illinois. No one gets a job here in Illinois in state government without knowing someone.

Well with having a Republican governor running the state in WI most of the time since 1987 naturally all the well paying union jobs have been snapped up by Republicans who either know someone or is related to someone who has pull.

We have the same problem in Illinois.

So, see how electing a GOP governor in your state, even a reasonable sounding one screws everyone in the long run?

We avoided getting a Walker clone last election by less than 20,000 vote for the same reason. Most of the state employees I know here in Illinois are lifelong Republicans.
