Is This Who The People Of Wis. Want Elected?

Closer to home, is this who the people of the Wisconsin 8th Congressional District want elected this November? This just doesn't look good.

Nevadans Betting on Terri McCormick in 8th race.
By Larry Bivins. August 5, 2010.

WASHINGTON — All political donors take a gamble when they give to a particular candidate, but at least one professional gambler has anted into the pot for Republican congressional candidate Terri McCormic.

Paul Kelly of Las Vegas, whose occupation is listed as a professional gambler on McCormick's campaign finance report for the second quarter of 2010, has wagered $2,400 on McCormick's primary race to take on incumbent Democrat Steve Kagen in the fall.

Kelly is not the only Vegas area resident betting on McCormick. In fact, half of the 58 individual donors to the former state representative's campaign from April 1 through June 30 are from the gambling mecca. All but one gave $2,400, the maximum allowed, and their contributions as a group amount to 60 percent of the $111,001 raised during the period, according to an analysis of McCormick's report filed with the Federal Election Commission.

Attempts to reach Kelly were unsuccessful, as there was no telephone listing for the address provided in the report filed on July 15.

A gambler from Las Vegas donates $2400 and no one can find him.

An analysis of campaign finance reports can reveal peculiarities not readily spotted in a summary examination. For example, deeper drilling into McCormick's report shows roughly 93 percent of her second-quarter funding came from donors who gave $2,400.

So almost all McCormicks donors came from high rollers?

McCormick's Nevada connections include Tony Dane, a political activist who manages a Las Vegas company called AutomatedCalling. McCormick's campaign records show January and February payments totaling $3,549 to Dane & Associates for fundraising. In December, she paid the company $436 for web design.

Dane has been in the center of local campaign controversies, the most recent being complaints to the Nevada election office in May regarding "robocalls" by his company that used the voice of a crying domestic violence victim against a local district attorney candidate.

Who is contributing and who is McCormick working with? I sure cannot vote for Terri McCormick because of some of the things that are going on with her campaign. The article from the Green Bay Press just reinforces my beliefs.

You need to read the whole article to get a look at the race and candidates.
