On my KPFK\/Pacifica<\/a> show today (which we may<\/i> be calling “The BradCast” thanks to suggestions here, but still open to others!), we covered the breaking news out of Wisconsin today<\/a>, naturally. Asst. AG JoAnne Kloppenburg’s unflinching announcement that she would be filing for a statewide “recount” in her state Supreme Court election against the incumbent Justice David Prosser, happened in a press conference just prior to air time. So we had to scramble, but think we covered things well (given what we have to work with over here.)<\/p>\n

One of my guests was WI’s former union organizer, former state planner and former elected official Leslie “Buzz” Davis, a Kloppenburg supporter who spent some 20 minutes with her at her home last night, after she’d invited him in to chat when he went there to deliver 1000 signatures on a petition asking her to recount the state.<\/p>\n

I was also joined by Sarah Manski of WisconsinWave.org<\/a> who, with her group and her husband Ben (who I worked with years ago during another recount, when he worked for the campaign of Green Party Presidential candidate David Cobb in 2004), is raising funds to support Kloppenburg’s efforts.<\/p>\n
