Wisconsin: Update from the recall effort

[Jackpine Radical]

For all those who have wondered about the staying power of the Dems in WI, here's some interesting news.


Dear Supporter,

Twelve days from today the polls will close in six recall districts. Six months of massive mobilization by Wisconsinites standing up for our rights will culminate in local recall elections. Time is short and we are ready.

You are a critical part of this campaign, so I wanted you to be the first to know that last night We Are Wisconsin made our 1,000,000th attempt to talk to targeted voters in these state senate districts.

Yes, you read that right —11,539 volunteers and staff have knocked on 363,916 doors and made 688,560 phone calls to reach 1,052,476 contacts!

Help us keep this amazing field machine going strong. Chip in $10 and help push our candidates across the finish line.

One million voter conversations. It’s an amazing milestone and a direct reflection of the energy and enthusiasm behind our diverse coalition of supporters: the workers of this state who want a fair shake, the young voters who want a better tomorrow, and Wisconsinites from all walks of life who remember when our politicians worked for those they represented and not for a divisive, partisan agenda.

Our volunteers and organizers on the ground won’t stop until we win these elections and defeat every single politician who stood against working people by supporting Scott Walker's devastating budget and his attacks on workers' rights.

Be a part of history – support We Are Wisconsin’s field program by making a $10 contribution today.

This coalition has always been about more than just winning elections, it’s about reclaiming Wisconsin values and giving our communities a voice in the process. We couldn’t have made it to this point without you, and we won’t be able to finish it without you.

I’m incredibly inspired by the dedication of our volunteers, organizers and community leaders. This isn’t just a political campaign, it’s a movement. With your help, we will continue our work to give Wisconsin voters a voice.

3. I Hope They Have Poll Watchers & Lawyers In Waukesha County

4. I am on an election integrity committee with the Waukesha County Democratic Party.

We are covering all wards in this county and have lawyers on hand. The state party is covering the rest and has resources available to help. We worked the primaries and most of us were heavily involved in the recount so we know what to look for.

We're on it.

6. We know the Republicans are going to cheat and we need lots of poll watchers to catch them

8. And that's just the union side.

The Democratic Party and volunteers for the candidates have been working their tails off too.
