Five. That’s the number of Wisconsin Supreme Court justices who are endorsing our campaign! This week, David Prosser and Jon Wilcox, two outstanding former justices, joined Justices Rebecca Bradley and Daniel Kelly and former Justice Michael Gableman in supporting us.
Gov. Scott Walker stepped aside Tuesday and let a new man take the position of governor of Wisconsin. To list the many accomplishments of Scott Walker would take more space than allowed here.
I served as a poll watcher on campus on election day and the workers did a fine job of checking the students IDs to be sure they were eligible to vote.
The results on campus were predictable with the hot issue of the time was a referendum on pot. Forgotten was the fact that Gov. Walker worked with the Legislature to hold the tuition in check for at least eight years.
Sen. Ron Johnson is supporting the Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act, a bill introduced by Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas) yesterday.This legislation would allow Wisconsin concealed carry permit holders to exercise those rights in any other state with concealed carry laws, while abiding by that state’s laws.
When Appeals Court Chief Judge Lisa Neubauer announced that she was going to be a candidate for the Wisconsin State Supreme Court to replace retiring Justice Shirley Abrahamson she must have thought she was sounding like a breath of fresh air! She commented that it was unfortunate that courts are partisan playgrounds and there is nothing good about outside money in court elections. I believe she was trying to say we need to keep political parties out of non-partisan elections. In retrospect it was almost as if she wanted to silence her conservative critics.
