For the past several months, Wisconsin state senator Kathleen Vinehout (D-Alma) has been contemplating a run for governor. Today, the Progressive is reporting that she has decided not to run.
Several sources close to Wisconsin State Senator Kathleen Vinehout told The Progressive on Thursday that she has decided against making a run for governor.Vinehout, who has been recovering from a car accident and resulting surgery on a fractured arm, will hold a press conference on Friday to announce her decision.
Full disclosure - I have donated money to Sen. Vinehout, both for her run against Scott Walker in the 2012 recall and in 2013. Kathleen supported my wife's unsuccessful run for Wisconsin Assembly in 2012.
