Gov. Scott Walker on Kloppenburg and the Democratic win for Milwaukee County Executive: "It's pretty clear you have two different worlds in this state."

Gov. Scott Walker continues to dismiss voter sentiment as "Madison vs the rest of the state," an obvious insult to all the Wisconsinites who turned out to send a message to the administration. For Walker, it's hard to believe anyone would be unhappy with the dictatorial direction of the state.
Walker: "I think it's pretty clear you have two very different worlds in this state. You've got a world driven by Madison, and a world driven by everybody else out across the majority of the rest of the state of Wisconsin."
Looking at the map, does that look like "a world driven by Madison?" (click here for map interactive results)


The problem stems the public's ability to challenge Walker's authoritarian view of state government, a winner take all policy that unabashedly attacks the middle class as overpaid and undeserving, through the electoral process.

What we're witnessing is a total takeover of the Republican Party by big business, under the populist banner of bringing in the "job creators," our economic saviors.

Watching the video clip below proves that we're stuck with an excuse driven sociopath as governor:



WSJTuesday's strong voter turnout and split electorate in the state Supreme Court race suggest the passion for trying to recall state senators remains robust, experts said, while several recall leaders reported big gains in collecting signatures outside polling sites.

While conservatives love to complain and bash the Democratic Party’s dominance in Dane County, turn-about is fair play, Democrats are making the same comparison of the starkly conservative counties surrounding Milwaukee, area’s that have basically become GOP militia camps. Uppity Wisconsin explains:
Jud Lounsbury: What is Milurbia? It's an area almost the exact size of Dane County to the west and north of Milwaukee … The suburban counties of Waukesha, Washington and Ozaukee and has a population of 600,146, dwarfing Dane County's 491,357.
Without (Milurbia), Prosser would have lost by about six points or 85,561 votes.
And the Milwaukee area still doesn’t have a liberal radio talk show host.

  1. Using Dane Co Clerk figures, the Madison city vote for Kloppenberg amounted to approximately 10% of the state's total votes cast for her. DO THE MATH WALKER. I'm thankful for the other 90% of Wi voters that supported JK. Keep up the recall work everyone and maybe Walker will recognize you exist sometime.
