2. My first BIG smile in a long time.

I just wish we could boot him out now, and didn't have to wait!

4. Let's think about this.....

if we are successful in recalling Walker, we get this:

Soooooo....how do we deal with that?

Maybe another strategy is to "neuter" Walker by taking away his majorities in both the Senate and the Assembly. Would our efforts be better off there?

5. Somewhere I read that she gets recalled also

Wouldn't you agree that she deserves it too? She's on board with everything Walker is doing.

6. When you have a re-call does the person being re-called get to be on the ticket?

[ewagner]

7. As I understand it...

The person being recalled is automatically on the ticket unless they resign or decline to run.

Now I'm curious about the "ticket"....doesn't the Lt Gov's name appear on a separate line? Or was it Walker/Kleefish on the same line?

[ewagner]

8. Okay...just checked....

The statutes say that the Governor and Lt Governor shall be elected by a "single vote" so that means that they are elected together and presumably recalled together...check out the link.

9. Separate petitions will be needed

The recall manual of the GAB states: "If more than one officeholder is to recalled, a separate petition must be circulated and filed for each. Only one officeholder can be named on a recall petition." One could speculate on how many votes each would get in the recall election, and it would likely depend to some extent on the opponent of each.

10. She is so stupid she probably wouldn't figure that out,

but we should recall her anyway, just in case somebody tells her.

[ewagner]

11. Yes she needs to be recalled

She has the potential of being worse than Snotty Scotty
