On Tuesday July 12, 2011 Wisconsin will conduct a primary election. The scheduled election is due to voter concern related to the manner in which policy is being legislated in the State of Wisconsin.
The focus of the election is State of Wisconsin Senate seats. Recall that the Senate is the upper house in the Legislature of the United States, and is apportioned according to population. A State Senators job is to represent the people at a higher level than a State Representative.
The election challenges the incumbent which is the person who currently holds the Senate seat. The risk to the Senator (incumbent) is the loss of a job. To help manage this risk an extra (fake) Democrat was listed on the ballot. The addition of the fake Democrat to the ballot is a strategy to add 30 days to the election process which gives the Senator (incumbent) prescious time to organize a voting population.
Adding an extra (fake) Democrat to the ballot results in a primary election on July 12, 2011 to determine the Democratic candidate to face the Senator (incumbent) on August 9, 2011. This strategy affords the Senator (incumbent) an extra 30 days to try to save their job.
Below is a list of participants in the Wisconsin primary election scheduled for July 12, 2011.
