Barrett Decision by Week’s End
Well, this ought to be fun. Too bad we don't put this on "InTrade."
Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett said he will make an announcement by the end of the week on whether he is going to run for governor.
Barrett said he will continue to consult with his family before making a final decision.
If Barrett entered the race, he would be the only major Democrat running for the office.
Earlier this year, Gov. Jim Doyle announced he would not seek a third term. Then, Lt. Gov. Barbara Lawton abandoned her campaign.
Major Republicans running for the office include Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker and former Us. Rep. Mark Neumann. They will face off in the September 2010 primary.
Well, if I copied the code right, I posted a poll on what you think will happen. I'll post the results as of Friday morning.
Frankly, I haven't talked to any Democrat on what's going there in about a month and way too much has changed, so your guess is as good as mine.
What Will Tom Barrett's Decision Be?
- He's Out. (67%, 14 Votes)
- He's In. (33%, 7 Votes)
Total Voters: 21
