Recall of Scott Walker starts Tuesday

Wisconsin Democrats will begin circulating recall petitions for Gov. Scott Walker across the state and on the UW-Madison campus starting Nov. 15. The Democratic Party of Wisconsin and United Wisconsin, a political action committee organized around recalling Walker, will have until Jan. 13, 60 days, to collect the 540,208 signatures necessary to prompt a recall election. College Democrats Chair Jordan Weibel said the student group plans to raise awareness about the Walker recall effort on campus.
