\"BadgersVote\"<\/p>\n

As the legislature considers funding for the University of Wisconsin in the state budget, it may want to consider the UW\u2019s BadgersVote campaign, or what I call the \u2018Get Out the Liberal Vote\u2019 campaign.<\/p>\n

First, apparently, the UW has so much money on hand that it has time and money to pay students $250 (each) cash to vote. I call it the UW\u2019s \u201ccash for votes\u201d scheme, but of course, the UW claims it\u2019s just paying students to contact others to vote. Uh-ha. Sure.<\/p>\n

Likewise, the UW is using its taxpayer-funded staff to work on this effort, which may be illegal, but of course, they claim it\u2019s a bi-partisan effort to get out the vote, but not only is not part of the core mission of a university, but of the dozen ultra-left organizations that the UW is coordinating with, only one (the College Republicans) is conservative, and I spoke with them and they say they never worked with the UW on such a campaign, so that\u2019s a lie designed to make it look bi-partisan when it\u2019s not. I call that vote masking.<\/p>\n

In addition, the UW is also unethically and possibly illegally (?) using its foundation to hide the source of secret hush money from a donor to assist in funding their efforts. I don\u2019t think the foundation was established to engage in partisan political activities and that should stop.<\/p>\n

The UW has driven massive voter turnout in the student districts for the last three elections. The last time I looked it was up to 90% in some cases. Now explain to me how the UW can have a 90% voter turnout when about half the students are from out of state.<\/p>\n

My opinion: UW is using this BadgersVote scheme to encourage students who are not residents to vote, even vote twice \u2013 once at home and once here, and to encourage foreign students to vote illegally.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s simple \u2013 if a student is paying out-of-state tuition, then that student is not a resident. But the UW is playing both sides of the fence, encouraging students to claim they are residents here because they lived here for 28 days while claiming they are non-residents in order to collect the much higher out-of-state tuition fees from them. Pretty sneaky\u2026<\/p>\n

The legislature should consider a bill to clarify residency for voting purposes to stop disenfranchising real Wisconsin residents whose votes are being diluted by this UW scheme. Here are some simple rules to determine is someone is a real resident of Wisconsin:<\/p>\n

1. If you pay out-of-state tuition, you\u2019re not a resident.
\n2. If you are still on Mommy and Daddy\u2019s tax return as a dependent, you\u2019re not a resident.
\n3. If your driver\u2019s license is from another state, you\u2019re not a resident.
\n4. If your voter registration is still in another state and you have not moved it, you\u2019re not a resident.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s really simple.<\/p>\n

We\u2019ve got to stop this scheme that the UW is engaging in using our taxpayer money. Likewise, we need legislation to stop the Madison city clerk from engaging in its nefarious activities to also get around the laws. I\u2019m told that when a non-resident approaches the clerk to register to vote with nothing to prove their residency, (which should be a clue that the person is not a resident of this state), the clerk volunteers to send the person a letter from the clerk\u2019s office. Such \u2018evidence\u2019 of residency would include a letter to the person\u2019s current living address (which they can\u2019t produce even one) from a legitimate source. But since they lack that, the clerk then asks for the person\u2019s address, and the clerk then sends a letter to that person. That person then returns later with that same letter from the clerk to use as \u2018evidence\u2019 of residency, and then the clerk registers the person to vote. I call that circular logic and it\u2019s fake, phony, and a scam against Wisconsin voters designed to get around the laws so that non-residents can vote here.<\/p>\n

Again, this has to stop, and since liberals love the concept of defunding, the legislature should defund the city of Madison and the UW until this crap stops. Don\u2019t tell me they\u2019re not cheating; they\u2019re cheating alright and let\u2019s put an end to it, in Wisconsin, right now.<\/p>\n
