8-29-17 democratic gubenatorial candidate dana wachs goes “between the lines”

Democratic state representative Dana Wachs says he’s running for governor because the average citizen in Wisconsin has been ignored by Republican governor Scott Walker.  “I’m a different kind of a Democrat,”  Wachs told AM 1170 WFDL’s Between the Lines program.  “I’m coming from western Wisconsin, I represent Eau Claire in the legislature.  I’m also a hunter and a fisherman as well as a conservationist.”   Wachs announced this month that he was entering the race.  “I’m running for governor because I think that regular  folks need a voice in Madison and right now they don’t have it.”   Wachs says the nearly $3 billion tax break bill for Foxconn is a big mistake.   “If everything goes just absolutely perfect, beginning around 2043 the taxpayer will start to recoup  the $3 billion that’s been put into this business,”  Wachs said. “Unfortunately, that will never happen.”
