Rep. Vos wants Walker Recall Estimate!!! Message: Democracy and Political Accountability Too Expensive!!!

If only Republicans could do anything they wanted, without any blowback at all.

Dream on Rep. Robin "beer bath" Vos.

Whining about how much it costs to hold our elected officials feet to the fire is so hypocritical of Vos and his fellow Republicans. Especially after forcing primaries in the 6 Senate recall elections, and attempting to recall Senate Democrats. Now all of sudden, the electoral process is too expensive.

What, weren't we supposed to have noticed?
Fox 6: State Representative Robin Vos sent a letter to the Government Accountability Board (GAB) Wednesday, formally requesting a cost estimate of a statewide recall election.

In the letter to the GAB, Vos said, "I believe that Wisconsin taxpayers should know the estimated cost of running a statewide election before petitions are circulated. Taxpayers need this cost estimate so they can make a better informed decision as to how their tax dollars should be spent."
Can we afford not to?
