Out of State Election Workers and Money Heading For Wisconsin to Help Keep Republicans in Power

I doubt the people of Wisconsin want outsiders interfering with their election.

The Republicans of Wisconsin are breaking unions destroying middle class jobs and trying to keep typical Democratically leaning people from voting at all by making it more difficult to have the proper ID and eliminating registration opportunities. So six of them have earned a recall election

But Ralph Reed and the Koch brothers' Americans for Prosperity are "deploying" resources (apparently volunteers and money) to Wisconsin to help fix this old election.

This sounds a lot like when the Mormon church flooded California in 2008 with GOTV to push the hate filled Proposition 8 over the top.

Nothing I like less than outsiders telling us how to vote.

I imagine that Wisconsin folk feel the same way.
