Vote Like a Democrat: Twice
Townhall ^ | 8/16/06 | Charlie Richards

Donovan Riley, running for State Senate in Wisconsin, voted twice in the 2000 Presidential election. Not surprisingly, he’s a lawyer and former professor. Somehow, not mentioned in this Chicago Sun-Times story, he’s also a Democrat.

Riley explains the incident with these brilliant words: “My best recollection is that I was splitting my time between Wisconsin and Illinois and it's possible I made a mistake.”

Think about that. He waited in line to vote for Gore in the tightest election in decades. Then he drove to another state and accidentally waited in line to vote for him again. On the same day.

This guy’s a lawyer?

It gets better. When you visit Mr. Riley’s website, you’re welcomed by these words: Donovan Riley - A Democrat who will vote like one for the 7th District.

Well said.

Donovan Riley speaks:

"The 7th District is traditionally Democratic. Its people deserve a traditional Democrat in the State Senate - a Democrat who will vote like one."

"Citizens in our area are engaged and involved. We need a State Senator who is engaged with us, instead of lobbyists and special interests."

"Our lawmakers have sold their common sense. Something is wrong when we prohibit life-saving research and call it 'pro-life.' Something is wrong when the only thing government can put in an empty pocket is a gun."

"People are coming back to core values like economic opportunity, social justice, personal freedom and educational excellence that have defined the Democratic Party across history. I'm proud of those values. I won't change them according to the political winds."
