The race for Wisconsin Assembly District 61 is another vital race in Democrat’s path to take the Assembly. On the Republican side you have the power hungry, career politician, carpetbagger, current State Representative, Bob Donovan. Running on the Democrats side is LuAnn Bird who is also not a newcomer to Wisconsin politics. Unlike Donovan though, Bird’s history as a “career politician” is filled with heartfelt advocacy to actually improve the lives of those she represents.

While almost any Democrat would be better than electing Republican Moses back to office in District 92, Democrat Plouff seems to have the kind of credentials we admire which makes him someone to actually be excited about electing to office. We hope that his election will be able to help us in turning the Assembly blue and prying it from the weird and dangerous Republicans.
