Does anybody know why WTMJ was there filming in the first place? I haven't seen this info anywhere. Do they routinely cover bingo nights at Kenosha mental health centers? So far 8 ballots have actually been filled out, at least one of which was for McCallum per the story, in exchange for some loose change, soda, and kringel, and people are making it sound like the greatest political scandal of all time. If residents were instructed or "forced" to vote for Doyle, in my mind that would/should be enough to deny Doyle the governorship (via his withdrawl, or prosecution, or just getting beaten, etc), but I think people are making waaay too big a deal out of this as it looks.

For the record, I'm not a Doyle supporter. I might actually sit out the gubernatorial race this year. McCallum and Doyle are utterly inept, Thompson wouldn't be much better, and I don't feel like voting for Young and seeing my candidate get 4% of the vote.

Umm, maybe WTMJ reporter Scott Friedman was engaging in a FLAGRANT ACT OF JOURNALISM!!!!!

Who cares WHY WTMJ was there?!!!

All honest citizens, regardless of party affiliation, should be happy that actual, sleazy political corruption was exposed by the media.

You don't think Democrats preying upon the mentally ill and technical violations of state law are a big deal?

Who knows how many mental health treatment facilities have been visited by the Doyle campaign?
