Today is Recall Day in Wisconsin

Just remembered that today is a huge day in Wisconsin - Recall The Repubs! Here's info on the vote for all you who live in districts affected by these recalls. PLEASE VOTE!!!!!

Brothers and Sisters,

Today, we have the first opportunity to make our voice heard at the ballot box. Today, we begin to reclaim Wisconsin and stop Scott Walker’s corporate takeover of the state. Today is the Democratic primary in six Republican-held Senate Districts. If you live in one of the Districts (see below) be sure to get out and vote!

Despicably, Republicans are running fake, spoiler candidates, posing as Democrats to confuse voters and extend the recall process. And, we’ve just gotten word than an out-of-state group is calling Wisconsinites and telling them to wait to get an absentee ballot in the mail rather than voting today.

This is false information, sent out in recorded phone calls by out-of-staters who want to keep us from voting today in the recall election.


The truth is, recall primary elections are scheduled in six districts today, and if you don’t already have an absentee ballot, it’s too late to request one—you need to go to the polls TODAY.

Here is a list of the REAL candidates who are on the ballot TODAY and are endorsed by the Wisconsin State AFL-CIO in July 12 primary and August 9 General Election:

District 2: Nancy Nusbaum
District 8: Sandy Pasch
District 10: Shelly Moore
District 14: Fred Clark
District 18: Jessica King
District 32: Jennifer Shilling

In Solidarity,
