Vice Presidential nominee Paul Ryan stopped by his hometown of Janesville, Wis. for a rally before departing for the Republican National Convention in Tampa Bay, FL.
Since the beginning of the gubernatorial recall primary in April, both Gov. Scott Walker and challenger Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett have hopscotched across Wisconsin to rally support as the June 5 election day approaches. Both campaigns have been very protective of their candidates. When either Walker or Barrett traveled, access was mostly granted to media outlets — not the general public. Walker spent much of his time visiting manufacturing plants to promote his jobs agenda. It wasn’t unusual for Walker to visit two or three locations throughout the state in a day.
Reporter Jacob Kushner and photographer Jake Naughton went to Darlington, Wis., for the latest installment of our Dairyland Diversity package (it’s here: Immigrant dairy workers transform a rural Wisconsin community).
