In the Milwaukee County 18th Supervisory District, the primary elections has winnowed it down to two candidates. One is Tracey Corder, who I introduced to the gentle reader in January.
Her opponent in the upcoming general election is a woman named Deanna Alexander. Alexander is a dyed in the wool supporter of Scott Walker and his maleficent agenda.
But that's not all.
Apparently Ms. Alexander, who wants to be representative of the people of the 18th Supervisory District in the northwestern corner of Milwaukee County doesn't support that district or even Milwaukee County.
When I looked at her Twitter feed, I noted that she was having her election party at a place called the Buford Inn on 124th and Hampton:
However, I could find no such place using Google or even the old-fashioned Yellow Pages phonebook.
ADDENDUM: An observant reader has pointed out that Alexander has deleted the "Buford Inn" tweet. Typical Republican - never admitting to making mistakes and trying to cover it up instead.
In hopes for clarification, I scrolled down further and found out that she had mistaken where she was (too much celebrating perhaps?) and really meant she was having her party at the Butler Inn:
That place I've heard of!
But Alexander still has a problem.
Butler Inn is located in Butler, WI, which is in Waukesha County.
So now the voters have a choice between Tracey Corder, someone who wants to rebuild their community and bring businesses back to the underutilized Northridge area, and Alexander, who can't even be bothered to hold her parties in Milwaukee County, much less the 18th District. Maybe that's what Alexander means when she says she wants to "rebrand Milwaukee County."
The choice couldn't be clearer. My first endorsement for the spring elections goes to Tracey Corder.

Idiot- that is the County line. Big deal.
ReplyDeleteAnd the Butler Inn is on the other side of the county line. Or can't you read a map?
ReplyDeleteIs that the same Tracey Corder who was supported by current disgraced County Supervisor Johnny L. Thomas?
ReplyDeleteYes, that's the same Deanna Alexander who supports infinitely disgraced Governor Scott Walker.
DeleteIs that the Corder that was endorsed by the disgraced Marina Dimitrijevic? You know, the one who also endorsed a criminal?
DeleteMarina never endorsed Scott Walker.
DeleteMy query RE: this on her Facebook page a quickly deleted, but I see ZW recently inquired as well. Seems public comments are no longer accepted there, and you have to like to play now.
ReplyDeleteChris, if you were a journalist, you would have been fired on account of irrelevance. How would people even care about something as petty as this?
ReplyDeleteThat is a blog post, right there. "Team Alexander feels that supporting the district is irrelevant."
DeleteSomeone should do a records request on Ms. Alexander in regards to Dept. of Children and Families, daycare, Dept. of Workforce Development and Milwaukee County.
ReplyDeleteThe sad thing about this woman is while she was working for the state she was cheating the system by claiming child support for day care (and getting a lot of money for it) while here looser husband was watching the child. She got mad at getting caught and stated (and I quote) "Why am I in trouble, just because I know how to cheat the system does not mean it is a bad thing". Well, I suppose she is a true politician but someone that I will never vote for. She has been caught lieing and cheating and has taken advantage of tax payers for a long time.
ReplyDeleteFor the record, the quote that I stated was heard by a dozen people in a state office building.
ReplyDeleteI looked at the map, and indeed it's right on the line between Waukesha and Milwaukee counties. I'm not sure if you're upset about the potential revenue lost by a Milwaukee County business, or exactly what the issue is.
