In reply to the discussion: Enough of the LIE about the DNC not helping in WI. [View all]Bluenorthwest
(45,319 posts)We get our ballots for about two weeks, and have a return by deadline which was Tuesday. So I for one voted for Obama for my third time this week. We also nominated Ellen Rosenblum for AG over the more conservative and mainstream candidate Dwight Holton whose lack of support for our Medical Marijuana laws was a large factor in his defeat. We got the word out strongly against a fake Democrat foisting a scam campaign against our House Member in the 4th, Peter DeFazio. My city elected our wonderful mayor Kitty Peircey to another term.
In addition, for me, the two weeks prior to the President's announcing his support for marriage equality were chock full of personal politics and contacts. It all looks different from the gridiron than it does from the stands, that's just life.
Wisconsin Democrats have even more than that to deal with. I kind of assume they are, therefore, busy with Democratic politics. For us it is not a theoretical practice, it is a thing that needs doing.
