Tate calls Barrett win 'overwhelming'
Wisconsin Democratic Party Chairman Mike Tate called Barrett's lead an "overwhelming victory and said that even though Wisconsin is a 50-50 state, "we are in an excellent position to elect Tom Barrett" guv.
Tate told reporters he fully expected the losing Dem candidates to campaign for Barrett.
"This election is not about money," Tate said. "It's about priorities. We want to end the strife, where friends can't talk to friends and neighbors can't talk to neighbors."
Tate said Walker's "drastic slash-and-burn attitude" toward workers and his "war on women" have alienated voters.
