  GOP CAMPAIGN ACTION ALERT !   Wisconsin Recall Election

Now is the time for all Republicans, Conservatives, Tea Party Activists and all who are concerned for their children's and country's future to take impactful action. The importance of the Recall Election against Gov. Walker of Wisconsin is second only to the Presidential election this November. Gov. Walker and Republicans in the Legislature have taken courageous action in reforming the public sector benefits programs and balancing the state budget. The public sector unions want their revenge. If they are successful in throwing Gov. Walker out and replacing him with a public sector union backed puppet then most every other state in the country will become timid when it comes to pension and benefit reforms. Illinois is a prime example of what occurs when responsible leadership is lacking. WTRC member Danielle Rowe has taken the initiative and is the coordinator for volunteers in this effort from Lake County. Please take note of the information below and sign up with your friends and help Gov. Walker and the Reform Movement throughout the Nation.

RACINE VICTORY CENTER CANVAS FOR GOV. WALKER AND SENATOR VAN WANGGAARD

Racine is a swing district. The Democrats are targeting Senator Van Wangggaard to hurt Scott Walker. If Wanggaard loses, Walker and the Republicans lose their majority in the Senate.

CANVASSERS ARE MEETING UP AT 9AM – MOVE OUT NO LATER THAN 10AM. WALK UNTIL 12:30PM / LUNCH (PROVIDED) /

AND/OR: 1:30PM – WHEN YOU ARE DONE WITH PACKET OR IT GETS DARK.

MARK YOUR CALENDAR: MAY 5, 12, AND 19, SAT. WALK AND CALL IN FULL FORCE AT VICTORY CENTER

CALLS ONLINE AND AT VICTORY CENTERS ARE BEING DONE MONDAY – SATURDAY 9AM – 9PM, SUNDAY NOON – 9PM

Calls to VOTE in Primary are critical for Scott Walker. He has a Republican opponent named Arthur Kohl-Riggs. Arthur was a protestor in Madison against the Pension Reform Bill. He calls himself a "Progressive Republican". WI has an Open Primary. The concern is that the Democrats will cross over to vote for Arthur in the Primary which would throw Gov. Walker out of office. The goal is to make Walker supporters aware that they MUST vote in this Primary to stop the Democrats attempt to cross over and vote for his opponent.

With the 2012 primary election season now picking up steam, it is also time to promote Republican ideals through passage of legislation, which in turn will help our candidates at all levels clarify their message.
