There are no less than two different groups that have appeared to wish to have the honors of being the ones to give her the opportunity to spend more time on the golf course.
One group is smaller and has a rudimentary website up. There are some interesting comments that people have left for the senator, since she also appears to feel she is above having to respond to her constituents.
The second group appears to only have a facebook page, but also have many more people as well as appears to be much more organized. They claim to be already in the process of filing the necessary paperwork for a recall and will be holding their first meeting and signature gathering later in this week.
For Darling to be recalled, they will need to gather more than 20,000 valid signatures plus some to cover any invalid signatures. They will also have to do it withing 60 days. A formidable challenge without a doubt. However, it should also be noted that Darling barely eked out her last election over the Representative Sheldon Wasserman, MD.
The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Dan Bice reports that Dr. Wasserman is anxious and ready for a second try to unseat her. Now that Darling has sealed her own fate, I don't even think she'll come close to having a chance.
The first meeting for the Committee to Recall Alberta Darling will be held this Saturday, February 26th, at the Shorewood Public Library, which is located at 3920 North Murray Avenue. The meeting will be from 12 noon until 1 pm.
For more information, see their Facebook page.

My guess is that if they get enough signatures, she will get a conservative oppoenent and she loses in the primary. Then the conservatives beats Wasserman.
ReplyDeleteIt's a moderate district, which is how Darling won in the first place. As she has shifted sharply to the right, she's been losing favor and barely beat Wasserman. I don't think any hard core conservative will win there again.
ReplyDeleteModerate district? No way. Mequon, Germantown, and Menomonee Falls are among Wisconsin's most conservative. Shorewood and Brown Deer are liberal hellholes that support the abortionist, Wasserman. He will get few votes outside of Milwaukee County. Three Democrats are targeted for recall also.

Darling almost lost the last election. Where were all the conservatives then?
ReplyDeleteI think the three Dems will be OK. It's the eight Repubs that you should worry about.
Alberta Darling (R-Diet Pills) will most likely lose some of the weight she's put on over the past few years worrying about the recall. She ain't gonna know what to do as former supporters shun this virulent slag wherever she goes.
ReplyDeletePlease. She won during the Obama election, with the majority of people voting for Obama and his name drawing people out. That's a conservative district and while there are people who want to recall her, you're nuts of you think that seats going to a Democrat.
ReplyDeleteLook at what Darling has to say here (source: http://www.todaystmj4.com/news/local/116777769.html)
ReplyDelete“To think they can drown out what duly elected officials want to do, is wrong,” said Darling.
So apparently Alberta "never reply to any of her constituents" Darling does what SHE wants to do, not what her constituents want her to do. This woman is so full of herself in la la land that I'll bet if you asked her what district she represents, she couldn't tell you without looking it up.
