I never understood how they could get along. I know one to be a sane, fact-based conservative who is motivated by helping others and knows how to build coalitions to get stuff done, my opinion of the other is an inflexible religious zealot motivated by pushing the party line with a very spotty employment record. I have always wondered what outside influence put them in the same office. Surely neither would be the other's first choice.
The representative who was once in charge of elections in Green Bay calls for public hearings about requiring ID for voters at the polls.
A few days later, a story about the staffer who quit his elected position to go to Madison who has publicly strongly supported the voter ID law has quit the aforementioned representative's office.
Related? Were the voter ID hearings the straw that broke the camels back? Maybe. Or it could just be what that the rumors mill says, the staffer's wife was really unhappy with Madison. Whatever the reason, it will be interesting to see what district the staffer and his family move to. The spring election season is right around the corner, after all.
