Walker's lead in Wisconsin recall election tightens in new poll

By Rachel Rose Hartman | The Ticket – 4 hrs ago

Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker maintains a narrow lead in his recall election, but his standing has diminished in recent weeks, according to a new poll released on the eve of the election.

Walker leads Democratic challenger Tom Barrett, the mayor of Milwaukee, by just 3 percentage points in a new survey of likely voters (pdf) conducted by Public Policy Polling. Walker leads Barrett 50 to 47 percent, down from the 50 to 45 percent matchup PPP found in a poll conducted three weeks ago. The margin of error for this week's poll is plus or minus 2.8 percentage points.

According to PPP, Walker—who was targeted for a recall after waging war on state public employee unions in 2011—is winning among men, whites, seniors and residents of the Milwaukee suburbs. Barrett leads among women, minorities, young voters and residents of Milwaukee County and greater Madison. Barrett is also winning independent voters 48 to 46 percent, a lead that is within the margin of error.

I saw that idiot Barret on Fox News complaining about all the out of state money that Walker has been getting.  It pissed me off that he wasn't called on the fact that unions have sent in just as much out of state money and out of state voters to support him.

He also declined to be interviewed with Brett. Walker was more than happy to be interviewed by him.

"Keep hope alive.".....where have I heard that before?
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism. But, under the name of ‘liberalism’, they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program, until one day America will be a socialist nation, without knowing how it happened.” - Norman Thomas, U.S. Socialist Party presidential candidate 1940, 1944 and 1948

"America is like a healthy body and its resistance is threefold: its patriotism, its morality, and its spiritual life. If we can undermine these three areas, America will collapse from within."  Stalin

Are you thinking the same thing I am? i.e. A progressive radio show with a "good reverand" as the host?

Not sure about that, but they're notoriously left and over-sample Democrats.

Then-Chief Justice John Marshall observed, “Between a balanced republic and a democracy, the difference is like that between order and chaos.”

John Adams warned in a letter, “Remember democracy never lasts long. It soon wastes, exhausts, and murders itself. There never was a democracy yet, that did not commit suicide.”

If by some miracle Walker loses tomorrow night, we should start the recall effort on Barrett.  :-)

They are a democrat party polling house financed by the DNC.
Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.
