Your Views: What do we really know about Mary Burke?
Those who try to stir people up regarding the voter ID law, what are they afraid of? Everybody had to prove who they were when they voted for the first time, didn't they? Regarding the poor and minority people having a disadvantage because of voter ID, they may not vote; how does anyone know that? I think a lot of these people would welcome the voter ID, Democrats and Republicans.
Regarding Mary Burke and Scott Walker, Burke and the interest-group people who don't like Scott Walker have accused him of just about everything I can think of. At first, I could see it, but now that is old stuff and they should move on.
The Sept. 26 Gazette has indicated the jobless rate fell to 5.9 percent in August, down from 6.7 percent in July and 7.5 percent in August 2013 here in Janesville. I don't really care what other states are doing. Looks like we're headed in the right direction.
What I want to know is what do we know of Mary Burke? I know she was with Jim Doyle when the state went way in debt, and that recently it is indicated her jobs plan was plagiarized. I sure don't want to vote for someone I really don't know much about! We all have had enough of that the last few years!
If we would vote for the most qualified person instead of the party they're in, we would be much better off!
