Gary Drzewiecki Does the Right Thing
Gary Drzewiecki gets the gold star of the week in my book because of the selfless act of not asking for a recount in the September 12th primary election where Marinette's John Nygren edged out Drzewiecki by a narrow 37 votes.
Gary Drzewiecki endorsed Nygren in the press release put out today by the Drzewiecki campaign:
I am endorsing my opponent in the primary, John Nygren, and encouraging my supporters to do like wise. I share John's believe that Wisconsin families and businesses pay more than their fair share of taxes and that belief has got to be fought for in Madison. John Nygren will do that so he has my full endorsement
One of the reasons that Gary Drzewiecki didn't request a recount is exactly why the Republicans hold the Wisconsin State Senate and Assembly, and control both Houses of Congress, and that is the selflessness and willingness to keep the majority:
"Drzewiecki says even if a recount were to reverse the results it would have delayed the start of the campaign and given the Democratic candidate an advantage."
What a class act.
