Kleefisch

Rebecca Kleefisch’s campaign released a new ad this week that features former Republican Governor Scott Walker and attacks rival GOP gubernatorial candidate Tim Michels over his alleged support for increases to the gas tax. In the spot, Walker says Kleefisch “stood with me as we took on the big government special interests and cut taxes.” Walker goes on to say that “While Rebecca and I were fighting for reform, Tim Michels’ company was teaming up with the union bosses and those lobbying for a gas tax increase.” Walker then says “There’s only one conservative fighter in the race for governor. Her name is Rebecca Kleefisch.”

The ad comes as Kleefisch and Michels, the widely accepted frontrunners for the GOP nomination for governor, have been locked in a heated battle over Michels’ alleged past support for gas tax increases and reliance on government contracts to build his wealth. The two will face off against one another as well as fellow Republican Timothy Ramthun during the August 9th partisan primary.
