Yesterday Wisconsin State Republicans faced recall elections. Their crime in the twisted minds of democrats? These republicans voted to balance the WI state budget. As you all know, 14 democrat state senators fled our state to avoid taking the vote on that budget bill.
Last night we learned that the recall elections from Tuesday August 9th, resulted in 2 of the 6 republicans being taken out of office.
The count before the election was 19 repubicans to 14 democrats in the state senate.
After yesterday's elections we now have 17 republicans against 16 democrats.
I’m in agreement with you. AMEN
I’ll be praying. Please send another reminder tomorrow (TUESDAY)
The WI teacher’s union has laid off 40% of their union workforce. I haven’t heard that any teachers have lost their jobs.
Things are being straightened out.
Happy days are here again!
You’re welcome. Let us know how it’s going today. :)
Prayers sent
Thank you for answering the call for prayer BR.

Lost them both.
Wirch (D-Rat) 57
Steitz (R) 43
Holperin (D-Rat) 54
Simac (TEA PARTY) 46
Percentages with 99 percent of vote in per local news.
Seems the Rats still had it in them.
Unknown amounts of voter fraud not overcome this time.
By 2012 elections we will have Voter ID in WI.
We will fight on.
