Scott Walker’s $100,000,000 Question – Walkergate

Wisconsin Dirty PoliticsMadison – The John Doe investigation involving Scott Walker’s current and former staffers is expanding beyond allegations of campaigning with tax payers’ resources. In recent events, two more former Walker staff members have been charged with felonies related to their alleged illegal activities while employed by Milwaukee County. In addition to the news of the newest arrests arising from the investigation, former Milwaukee County Supervisor Roger Quindel informed WISN about unusual bidding process that took place under Walker’s watch.

[Qunindel told WISN]:

Quindel said he remembers an unusual bidding process during Walker's tenure as county executive. What appeared to be a done deal to extend a lease on some county offices turned into another round of bidding and gave bidders just five hours to present new bids.

"I thought it was a strange way of doing business. Even if you had rebid process, it should have been longer than this short, jammed-up period of time, and I was worried about a lawsuit even at the time," Quindel said.
