The Koch political network is rolling out another seven-figure ad campaign to boost incumbent Republican Gov. Scott Walker's re-election bid in Wisconsin.
Americans for Prosperity on Friday announced plans to spend $1.3 million on TV and digital spots as part of a three-week effort to hit Democratic challenger Tony Evers, the state's superintendent.
The push follows a $1.8 million campaign spearheaded by the group's Wisconsin chapter promoting Walker's education policy record.

This does not speak well of Walker. Take note. The Kochs are globalists rinos that will be no longer tolerated by conservatives.
No, more interested in keeping their pulp mills open to sell their product brands.
The Koch brothers only give to Cheap Labor Express stooges.
I know people don’t want to hear that, but it is true.
I am ready to expel them from our party and any politician that is beholding to them. They are evil.
Expel them . No longer are we governed by globalist anti American exploiters of our lives.
YES!
We are back to Walker, Ryan, and Preibius. RINO scum like some have said for a very long time.
Yes sir. We have an enemy and it is us.we must force them out. They have no place to go but the democrat socialist DATZi party.
If he is taking their money, considering his ties with Ryan and Preibus, how can he be anything but?
Again, what has Walker done that isn't conservative? The state has taken ten steps to the right since he has been in.
Yes, he knows the Kochs (although from that radio show gotcha attempt it seems he really might not). And they are trying to keep their paper mills going in Wisconsin. Which would be shut down by a liberal governor. Of course they are interested in the race.
This might be a baby-bathwater thing here.
Walker’s a good man... the money will help Trump keep power...
Correct. He has not been super on immigration issues. Fiscally and economics he has been good. Could be a little more 2a vocal.
Sad, I had such high hopes for Walker. Praying he doesn’t go full Scaborough.
This is a state gubernatorial race, not a presidential election.
I agree that the Koch brothers are open borders globalists, but that has no bearing on a state election. Walker opposes in-state tuition for illegals and sanctuary cities.
The Koch brothers are also free-market libertarians. So, their support of Walker is on the pro-business side.
Also, Walker will win in another landslide. Don't believe the polls, they are total frauds. His opponent is a total joke - a state superintendent of schools who actually praised Walker for his Act 10 reforms that reformed school funding.
This is Walker's fourth election in 8 years. The man is a warrior who should have been Trump's VP, IMO.
I support walker but not the Koch brothers....the Koch Brothers are the million dollar donors that become an issue when ever you start to criticize democrats taking money from George Soros. examine those brothers and you have to ask do we want the kind of strings that money demands on politicians... if I am going to be critical of demacrat who takes Soros money I have to look now at walker at one time I wanted him to run for president. this has me rethinking my support in any future presidential run though he still has my support in state politics.
The Koch brand renders everything they support suspect.
He’s a Bush League Republican that supported amnesty for illegal aliens until Trump came along.
Walker kissed their ring and is now in their debt. This is something you can never be freed from. Politics is an evil thing.
I am interested to see their donor list that the 9th circus has required for them to show. It will never happen but I am sure the name Soros is on that list.
