Wisconsin Recall Drive Makes History (# 4 to be filed)
Edited on Tue Apr-19-11 04:18 PM by catgirl
Political Wire:

More than enough signatures have been collected in an effort to recall the fourth Republican state senator in Wisconsin, the St. Paul Pioneer Press reports.

Republicans just under a week for their signatures to trigger recall elections against Democratic senators. They have not yet submitted any.

Greg Sargent: "Here's what this means. Presuming all four elections take place -- which they all but certainly will, given the massive amounts of sigantures gathered in all four cases -- Dems will have matched the amount of recalls triggered in the state's whole previous history in less than a year."

I believe we need to win three of these to take control of the house.

2. Aren't there two or three more recalls efforts going on?
I thought there were at least six active attempts at recall.

This is great work - if the voters turn out with the same enthusiasm and the votes honestly counted, Wisconsin can turn this crap around.

Go, Wisconsin!

They are targeting several more- fingers crossed! The repugs are targeting dems too, but they have yet to file any. ;-)
