loooong overdue union post
Aug. 16th, 2011 11:49 pmThe personal RL post will come later, when I'm not sleepy. For now, you get the union side of things. :)
Yes, we only flipped two seats last week in the Senate recalls, but that's way, way better than zero, and two Republican districts going Democratic is nothing at all to sneeze at. Heck, Fond du Lac County's district hadn't elected a Dem since 1956... and then last week happened. :D I count the recalls as a victory, especially given tonight. The summary of tonight's events is: Wirch kept his seat after a scary start, Holperin never really looked in true danger and kept his seat as well. All three of the challenged 14 stayed in office, and we gained two seats besides. We held the line, again. Yay!
Now onward to January, when it's Walker's turn. Enjoy your current position, Governor. You'll have to fight for it in the new year, and I don't think much of your odds.
Medical RL update (all positive, I promise) tomorrow. For now, zonk goes the Chanter. Night!
