    1. Voter suppression laws

    2. Unlimited corporate cash from the Koch Brothers, etc. Walker outspent his opponent 7:1.

    3. Fraudulent robo-calls put out by Walker telling people that they “didn’t need to vote if they had already signed the recall petition.” Yeah. Exactly.

    Walker started campaigning many months ago, while his candidate couldn’t until just weeks before the election. The Koch-backed Walker lied to the voters for MONTHS.

    Neither, Walker was able to balance the budget without having to do major layoffs. The schools were able to renegotiate with the Unions to help keep them manned to the levels that the liberals want. It was a win for everyone except the Union bosses who lost some power.

    Hmmmm! Walker inherited a huge budget deficit and was able to balance it without laying off anyone or raising taxes. Sounds like the people were VERY informed to me.

    No the Governor is not that well liked.

    But the DO have a balanced budget, AND their taxes are not going up yet again.

    THAT they like, and that is why he is still in office.

    Your ignorance is showing.

    Typo: They like what the governor is doing, yet he is not like. Even though they voted for him twice in two years to be their governor.

    Yeah that makes a lot of sense.

    People in Wisconsin are not hayseeds, redneck troll. I do think it could have been rigged. Obama has a substantial lead in the polls there again, so I don't understand the love for that miserable governor.

    Neither case. This question is 100% fiction.
