If you had any doubts whether the new redistricting maps were fair, this scorching revelation should clear that up, compliments of the scumbag* Fitzgerald brothers.
jsonline: As legislative leaders secretly developed new election maps last year to strengthen their majority, Republican lawmakers were told to ignore public comments and instead focus on what was said in private strategy sessions, according to a GOP memo that became public Monday.
Other newly released documents also show almost all Republican lawmakers signed legal agreements promising not to discuss the new maps while they were being developed … agreements were also signed by Eric McLeod of Michael Best & Friedrich … McLeod has drawn attention in recent months for providing legal services to state Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman under an arrangement in which Gableman did not have to pay.
And if the maps go to court?
Included in the documents released Monday was a set of talking points that stressed that those who discussed the maps could eventually be called as a witness in a court case.
And just how deceptive did the Fitzgerald brothers want to
be to easily mislead Wisconsinites?
"Public comments on this map may be different than what you hear in this room. Ignore the public comments … you agree not to disclose the fact and/or contents of such discussions or any draft documents within your possession."
And if you ask the guy who helped write the talking point
pledge:
All the Electronic records say the talking points were created by "afoltz," an apparent reference to Adam Foltz, a legislative aide to Jeff Fitzgerald who helped draft the maps. Foltz said he probably helped write the talking points but did not specifically remember doing so.* I don't like name calling, but after this, what's left.
