State Representative Launches Write-in Bid for Wisconsin Governor

From Austin Cassidy at Uncovered Politics:

State representative Brett Hulsey is launching an Independent write-in campaign for Wisconsin governor with less than 2 weeks to go before the election. The Madison-area representative filed his candidacy with the state’s Government Accountability Board at the end of last week. He is not seeking re-election to the Wisconsin Assembly.

“I will stop outsourcing Wisconsin jobs with your tax money, unlike the two major party candidates. We need a real Wisconsin jobs plan, not more of the same old thing,” said Hulsey.

Hulsey lost the Democratic gubernatorial primary to Mary Burke earlier this year. He polled only 17% statewide, but came close to winning 30% in Milwaukee. He then changed his registration from Democrat to Independent.
