2010 Democratic Candidates

Federal Office Candidates
	Russ Feingold US Senator (D) Committee:  Feingold Senate Committee PO Box 620062 Middleton, WI 53562 Phone: (608) 831-7877 Fax: (608) 831-3182 www.russfeingold.org Read Letter to the Editor from Vivian "Russ Feingold is everything I could want in my senator. He is progressive, but independent; brilliant, but plain spoken; courageous, but willing to work with opponents. He is one of the few senators who is not rich, who is not beholden to wealthy special interests, and who does listen to ordinary people. I don’t always agree with every one of Russ’s stances, but I always admire him for his principled thoughtfulness." Vivian Levensohn
	Joe Kallas Candidate for Congress Congressional District 6 Committee:  Kallas for Congress PO Box 107 Berlin, WI   54923-0107 Phone:  (920) 295-6678 JoeKallas.com "We need to elect Joe Kallas in the 6th Congressional District. Tom Petri has held this House seat since 1979 - too long in office, too little accomplished. Joe owes nothing to the corporate and big-money interests. He will be a true representative of hard-working Wisconsin voters." Peggy Slez
State Office Candidates
	Tom Barrett Candidate for Governor Campaign:  Barrett for Wisconsin PO Box 510796 Milwaukee, WI   53203 Phone: (414) 271-8050 email:  info@barrettforwisconsin.com www.barrettforwisconsin.com Read Letter to Editor:  Barrett on Handguns "I am a lifelong Democrat pledged to support and vote for my party’s nominees, because I believe in the democratic process and the core principles of the Democratic Party: Every person may have a voice in shaping policies; majority rule is chief in deciding most questions affecting everyone; minority rights can not be abrogated; the tax burden should be fairly distributed in accordance with the ability to pay. I do not vote on the basis of the personalities of individual candidates, because I think that is a risky business. I want my government to be one of laws, not of the men and women momentarily in charge.  I believe that Tom Barrett has a track record as a good team player: as a state legislator, as a United States Congressman, and as chief executive of Wisconsin’s largest city, Milwaukee. Milwaukee has what is known as a “weak” executive office, with most governing power resting in the city council; this has made it necessary for Tom Barrett to consult with the aldermen and the various urban departments before taking action, and he has had to use the powers of persuasion, rather than the powers of his office, to achieve some of the goals he has worked for. I think those attributes will serve us well if Tom Barrett is nominated and elected as Governor of Wisconsin." Jan Olson
