The Knock & Draggers have been out en force in Milwaukee, Madison and Racine. Trying to find those voters that otherwise might stay home. Some are hanging out at polling places wearing "JOBS Now" T-shirts, reports of mentally incompetent nursing home elders are requesting permanent absentee ballots.
This election the Knock and Draggers aren't getting the kind of $$$ for their service they have scored in past elections. I have heard reports from sources that many of the rider/voters are used to getting on the bus, going down to vote and then getting a little "Bling" when they show off their "I voted" sticker. Sometimes it's a drink coupon, sometimes it's a deal off a little BBQ at Wilburs back in the day. (In Milwaukee "Speed Queen" BBQ is the prize...and I'm told it's the best BBQ in the state!). But this year the confidence in the results..seem to be in question..and the regular joints aren't willing to Fling the Bling! Poll watchers at Racine City Hall haven't seen a whole lot of early voting..I guess Barrett and Lehman aren't very stimulating guys.
Reports from Milw. City Hall from Saturday when the Dems threw a big shebang to get out the vote (GOTV) and only about 350 city voters early voted on Saturday. far fewer than than the extra couple thousand they had hoped to get.
In Racine County the Democratic Party seem to be in disarray. In fact the RDP which has had 2 major upheavals in the past 7 years in it's leadership..seems to be on the verge of yet another mutiny. Jane Witt's leadership "style" doesn't seem to create a very welcoming follower-ship. Her intolerance and brash personality has rubbed some of her "subjects' the wrong way. Some of those other factions seems to be quite unhappy. It also appears to be a little bit of a race or class division. After the RDP's nudging Bob Turner out of running so they could save a seat for Corey Mason...some of the black members are realizing they might just be needed for GOTV and not really needed in between elections.
AFSCME membership is in free fall! It's amazing how many AFSCME members have left. Nearly 55% of them have quit in the first year they the chance! Imagine how many will quit here in the City of Racine when the contracts expire in 2013.

Wanggard or Lehman? NEITHER!
Attn. Racine City residents:
CRG asks the question:
Who will be your State Senator in January of 2013?
Van Wanggaard or John Lehman?
NEITHER!!
No matter who wins on June 5th, neither of them is “our” Senator anymore. Thanks to redistricting the Senate District #21 now includes Caledonia, Most of Mt. Pleasant and almost all of Kenosha County except for the City of Kenosha. It doesn't include the City of Racine any more.
The city of Racine's new SD#22 will be an “open” seat for those of us in Racine. Sen Bob Wirch who has spent 16 years in office has decided he will move his home into the new district and will be running to represent the people of Kenosha and Racine cities. You might think he would run unopposed..but how many people who actually live in the City of Racine even know a hing about Sen. Bob Wirch?
Not very many. The good news for Racine is that Bob Wirch will have a challenger:
This morning WLIP am 1050 on the Lenny Palmer Show
PAM STEVENS announced she will be running for the SD # 22!
Pam Stevens has been on the KUSD for the past 9 years where she served 2 years as Board President. Pam is a single Mom, Grandmother, business manager and is very interested in Educational oppurtunites for all children. Ms. Stevens was a supporter of school choice for Racine and would support expanding the program to the KUSD district. Ms Stevens Is also concerned about crime in the KR region, and will work with law enforcement, the DA's office and the judiciary to improve our system.
CRG of Racine has asked Ms. Stevens to explore the extension of 794 into, and through the Cities of Racine and Kenosha. CRG urges you to check her out her facebook page Pam Stevens for Senate, or her web site Pamforwisconsin.org.
Please check her out, either Pam Stevens or Bob Wirch will represent those of us here in the City of Racine.
When things get tough Racine can count on Pam Stevens to stay in Madison and do her job, not run off to Rockford. If Pam is elected Racine can count on her to keep the budget spending under control and not to raise taxes. Racine can depend on Pam Stevens to watch for fraud and abuse of our welfare system. Most importantly when a company wants to bring jobs to Wisconsin, whether its for mining, science, manufacturing or promoting our natural resources from boarder to boarder, Pam Stevens understands the importance of jobs and Wisconsins future. Lower Taxes, smaller Govt. and more individual liberty. At first blush Ms. Stevens looks like someone to watch!

Kenosha County Recall Fraud!!
It looks like our buddy Mark Demet was also busy in KENOSHA CO.!! I submitted the following information to the Kenosha DA's office and the Sheriff's Dept. for investigation. I am pleased to report that so far they are taking the investigation seriously! I spoke with the DA's office twice yesterday, and the Asst. DA I spoke with suggested specifically which Sheriff's investigator I should contact, and supported my cause by contacting him independently as well.
Ken Brown Citizens for Responsible Government"
"Today I began reviewing signatures on the Scott Walker
recall forms and have already come across a few improprieties, which should be
investigate, by the proper authorities.
Page 071942 from the iVerifytherecall.com web site. (I have copied the pages for you
convenience, Contains 6 different persons residing at the Address 4415 31St
St, Kenosha, WI 53144. Each has a
different last name than rest except for Mark Demet and Homer Demet. I have information that Mark Demet resides
in the City of Racine with his mother Mary Demet at 2409 Arlington Ave, Racine,
WI 53403. It also appears that Mary
Demet is a Widow…The widow of Homer DEMET who died November 6th
2004. It is suspicion that Homer
Demet, Deceased had his name recorded on the Recall forms in order to commit
election fraud. Attached is a CCAP report of the death Probate data. Click Here
It is my suspicion
that the deed was done by Mr. Mark Demet, who also falsified each of their
addresses, including his own.
I checked via CCAP for each of the other 4 individuals with
a connection to that same address, 4415 31st Ave, Kenosha, WI 53144,
but I located Zero information about any of them.
As you look down the petition it is clearly evident that the
names and addresses of all 6 persons were printed by the same individual. (see
lines 4-9) According to the recall
laws, it IS legal to be preformed by the CIRCULATOR only! NOT by any other
individual. The printing style and ink
pressure in no way matches the printing style of Laurie Bonnar the
circulator. Either Ms. Bonnar,
knowingly allowed one person to fill out 6 lines of this form and attested to
it’s veracity, or Ms. Bonnar allowed the circulation papers out of her sight,
and still swore to the veracity of those signatures which she did not in fact
witness.
I urge the DA’s and it’s law enforcement agents to
investigate Ms. Bonnar and the 6 “Signers”, to verify the addresses match these
folks and furthermore to ensure that each of the 4 persons did in fact wish to
sign this recall. Further to check
whether Mr. Mark Demet does in fact hold residence at 4415 31st Ave,
or does he in fact reside at 2409 Arlington.
Did Mr. Mark Demet bear false witness at either residence in attempt to
commit Election Fraud? Finally and most importantly was the identity theft of a
deceased individual used for the purposes of forgery on a Recall petition, and
was that deed committed by Mr. Mark Demet? Was Ms. Bonnar aware that her
circulation papers were being falsified by someone impersonating a deceased
individual?
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Mark Demet Charged with 9 Felonies.
Monday the felony charges against Mark Demet were released to the media. 9 charges altogether..7 charges include the term "obtain money". What could that possibly mean? Did the Sheriff's investigator uncover evidence that Mark Demet was being PAID to collect signatures? If that is true..who wrote the checks? How many "volunteers" were paid?
UPDATE: I spoke to an Atty. in the DA's office, and the explanation is that there was no actual money transfer here, but the "Value" of a signature or vote is what is the "Value". The Coding system brings up "Obtain Money" when entered into the database. (Denise Lockwood at the Patch has made the same clarification.).
Randolph Brandt, a few weeks ago, ran to the press like a man on fire to deny any connection to Mark Demet, Brandt suggested that I had planted him to collect signatures and then I busted him for doing it! Mark might not be the smartest guy in the room, but I don't think he's stupid enough to let me set him up, and then call the DA's office and turn him in, so he could be charged with Felony's! (For the record, I have NEVER met Mark Demet, I do know his brother Jeff, who was a victim in this crime).
On Caledonia Patch the following statement was issued:
"Randy Brandt, treasurer for the Committee to Recall Van Wanggaard, said Demet might have been planted to discredit the recall effort, but the criminal complaint doesn’t address that issue.
“The charges imply that money was somehow involved, but no one on the Committee knows him and I know we didn’t pay him,” Brandt said. “But I’m glad that the whole process is unfolding as it should. Someone who allegedly is trying to circumvent the petition process should be charged with the crimes. And it’s a pretty serious crime.”
If Brandt, or his committee didn't pay Demet..then who did? I'm told Mark Demet is not in a Union. Or did one of the Unions go around offering $$$ for signatures? Now here's another little tidbit that brings Brandt's credibility in question about knowing Mark. Demet was down at the Sturtevant Wal-mart on several of the big traffic days..which was a targeted location by the Committee to Recall VW. So I am sure some of the leaders of this group. Brandt, Kelly Gallagher, Diane Kovacs, etc. would've been in discussions with Mark Demet.
So Mark Demet signed 6 or 7 names at least. But also signed the name of a dead person! All of things we have claimed that the Dems have been up to for years Demet actually did.
As of today we have also heard the 1 Million signatures against Walker was really 815-850,000, an exaggeration of over 20%. Furthermore of those signatures turned in it appears 15-20% of those signatures are either invalid, duplicates, out of state, dead, or out of the valid time frame.
It is unacceptable for us to tolerate voter /recall fraud at 15-20%!! Imagine if the recall effort required a valid form of ID to be permitted to sign a recall..would they have gotten enough? Probably not. So now that Wisconsin requires Voter ID at the polls, we will make it much more difficult for them to "win" by fraud. It's why the Left has been against voter ID forever. Dem's win through cheating, and deception, and then they justify it by claiming to represent the "Middle Class". I have news for them; The middle class is simply not as corrupt, as their childish, illegal behavior.
I would like to thank the Racine DA's office for investigating this matter, and then filing the appropriate charges. If this had happened in Milwaukee or Dane County..would they have even tried to investigate?

Addressing the Fake Pension Scare for Govt. Employees
Greetings Aldermen, Exec. Ladwig and Mayor
Dickert, et al;
I just read the State of WI is looking into whether a revised system of pensions for Govt. workers is possible under current State Law. Is the City/County of
Racine in a position now to explore this option as well? I know in the City of Racine we
have restrictions until the current contracts expire, Next April. But it would be
worthwhile to have the City/ County ready to pounce on this option when we
create our own set of employment rules in 2013. I am not in favor of
eliminating pensions..but I think offering the CHOICE of 401K's or some hybrid
would be beneficial to both the employees and the taxpayers. Also portable 401K
accounts offer more mobility to the employees when lay-offs and/or new job
opportunities arise for those personnel.
I am also aware WEAC and other unions are using
this as a fear tactic. I suspect, if the State goes in this direction, most
municipalities in WI will make similar changes. This puts all of the best and
brighest Govt. employees in play, as well as folks in the private sector who
might like to put in a few years with a City, County or State govt. if they can
add to their own 401K's, while in that Govt. job.
I learned about this idea from a false e-mail that
is circulating to Govt workers, especially WEAC members. The J/S does a great job here of debunking the myth that Scott
Walker is actually trying to "eliminate" pensions..but is merely trying to expand choice
to Govt. employees. Improving the environment for all of us. Here is the link
to the JS Politi-Fact article:
Feel free to respond to this email or via CRGofracine@tds,net I look forward to
responses and am available to take questions as well.
Sincerely,
Ken Brown,
Spokesperson, CRG of Racine
Member Racine

12 people in a circle is not news!
As usual another day another protest. Down in front of Uncorkt in downtown Racine is a dozen protesters marching in a circle with their silly posters pretending to be the 1% and bashing Paul Ryan and the Koch Brothers.Same Crap, different day. I just wonder whether these people have real jobs or are just professional protestors. CRG observes how the Dems, Unionista's, and "1%er's" PROTEST! Did you ever notice the TEA Party Rallys and wins.. The others Protest and whine!
Of course if 12 TEA Partiers get together Channel 4 doesn't send down a truck to cover it! I seriously went down and took a few pictures and I counted 12 people in chanting circle! What a joke!
