Wisconsin Democrats May Sacrifice Primary Election to Oust Gov. Walker Early Last edited Wed Apr 11, 2012, 03:23 PM - Edit history (1)



In a huge twist, Wisconsin Democrats now have the potential to remove Scott Walker before he even has a chance to face off with a Democratic challenger. With the out-of-nowhere candidacy of progressive activist Arthur Kohl-Riggs on the Republican ticket Democrats could now vote out Walker in the Republican primary. Wisconsin law allows an open primary in which Democrats can vote in the Republican primary, or vice versa.



In recent weeks Democrats have come under fire for not unanimously endorsing a single Walker challenger. That coupled with weeks of speculation that Republicans would vote in the Democratic primary in an attempt to sway the endorsement to the least electable candidate had until Mr. Kohl-Riggs candidacy today left Democrats very vulnerable and without many options. With the introduction of this activist candidate Democrats are again back on the offensive.



A large enough show of force by Democrats during the primary could eliminate the Governor from the ballot altogether and secure an instant victory. All four Democrats fighting for the partys nomination are all veteran Democratic leaders. Assuming there is no question amongst Democrats that any of their candidates are better than Walker they would be acting in their own best interest to choose to let their own primary play out like a roll of the dice and secure the win early.
