how people like to post or comment on politic forums and argue from emotional irrationality and not facts. So here is the answer to why the charges were not filed before the election, if they do have them: There is a code that forbids them from filing charges within sixty days of an election, so that there is no appearance of trying to influence said election. Also, in these types of situations, it is common practice for the state, in this case DA John Chisholm, to defer to the DOJ, which is why he also hasn't filed charges against Walker yet.
The news of this just started leaking out a few days before the recall. I had little doubt that Walker would win. He had almost 10 times the money. But I do know that it is looking more and more likely he will probably be charged with illegal campaign funding, wire fraud and co-conspirator in embezzlement to finance illegal campaign fraud.
So walker will probably not finish his term anyway. However, that would mean Kleefisch would take his place and she is no step up.
