WARNING: Walker Camp is Telling Voters That If They Signed the Recall Petition, They Already Voted.

[kpete]

This is from an email I just received from the Barrett campaign:

Reports coming into our call center have confirmed that Walker's allies just launched a massive wave of voter suppression calls to recall petition signers. Here is what people are receiving across Wisconsin:

"If you signed the recall petition, your job is done and you don't need to vote on Tuesday."

Tom Barrett mentioned on tonight's Ed Show (broadcast live from Madison) that he had just recorded a robocall message refuting the one mentioned above.

1. That's got to be a new low. Unbelievable.

I hope nobody is buying this!

Disgusting.

[Cracklin Charlie]

5. Is that legal?

This sounds like a desperation move. Polls must not be lookin' good.

[GreenPartyVoter]

9. Absolutely should be illegal!

[HooptieWagon]

12. Should be illegal

but apparently not. Last election here in Florida had robocalls and flyers giving wrong election date and erroneous poll locations. Key is to educate voters as best as possible.

[TheWraith]

26. No, it's not.

But it's rarely punished.

[morningfog]

2. They sound worried, desparate and crooked. Get this out there!

[Drale]

3. Theres a bigger issue here

the fact that anyone would believe this lie, shows that we don't educate our citizen nearly enough about how the government and voting actually work.

[RufusTFirefly]

11. Absolutely! We're starving public education and our public airwaves are controlled by corporations

This seems like the logical end result.

And, by the way, it's not accidental.

4. Burn in hell fuckers...

eom

[lonestarnot]

6. Basturds!

[RB TexLa]

7. That's pretty smart

[HangOnKids]

18. Fraud is Smart?

I know you are just waiting for somebody to say something aggressive so you can hit alert, try again Tex. LOL. LOL. LOL. LOL. Try harder next time Tex.

[Occulus]

21. It is absolutely stupid and wrong

All such tactics should be felonies.

[Ikonoklast]

23. Makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, don't it?

Sad.

[RB TexLa]

27. No I'm just saying its a smart way to supress your opponent's vote

8. My elderly mother was called a week before the election in 2004

and offered a ride to the polls "next Wednesday".

She got the guy's name and turned his ass in. He was a republican operative who was running for office. Fortunately he lost.

13. Your mom

is awesome!

[Cali_Democrat]

10. Just a preview of what will come in November

This will be the ugliest election season in US history and the other side well spend almost $2 billion.

[cry baby]

14. Went to kos and donated. Good luck Wisconsin! nt

[SunSeeker]

15. That kind of slime should be put in jail.

IMO that is election fraud.

[Left Coast2020]

16. Saw Ed Show and he mentioned it too.

I think people may have clue that this is BS. He had Rev, Jesse Jackson on too. WIll never forget shaking his hand in 1988 in Oregon when he ran for WH. Wow!

[Ruby the Liberal]

17. More reason to man the phones tomorrow. **LINK TO HOW YOU CAN HELP**

19. Why do they always rely on cheating in order to win? They never expect to win honestly.

[canuckledragger]

20. made a reddit post about this as well to spread the word

*disclaimer:

not trying to take away from traffic to DU...this is an important issue & needs visibility!

...& I HATE liars & bullies...also don't want the Republicans to infect my country more than it already has..

[padruig]

22. the only way...

the only way Republicans can win is by lying, cheating and stealing an election

[Blue Owl]

24. Desperado...

I hope Wisconsin comes to its senses!

[sufrommich]

25. Sickening. If true it should be a punishable election

crime.
