GREAT WORK FROM THE PEOPLE OF THE Wisconsin 12th.
From the Wausau Daily Herald
The citizen group seeking to recall state Sen. Jim Holperin said it plans to file recall petitions with state election officials this week.
Bob Rajek, chairman of the Republican Party of Lincoln County and one of the organizers of the Jim Holperin Recall Committee, said the group has collected more than the 15,960 signatures required to hold a recall election. Holperin is one of the 14 Democratic state senators who left the state to block passage of Gov. Scott Walker’s proposal to end collective bargaining rights for most public employees.
Rajek said he didn’t know exactly how many signatures were collected but guessed the group had more than 20,000. He said organizers plan to hold a conference call tonight or tomorrow to decide on a delivery date for the documents.
Kim Simac, organizer of the recall committee, first announced the group’s plans on Saturday during a tea party rally in Madison.
