Group drops Doyle recall effort

July 31, 2009 By WRN Contributor

An effort to recall Governor Doyle is being abandoned.

The group Wisconsinites Interests Now, or WIN, announced plans this spring to try and recall the governor a full year before his term in office was up.

However, WIN leaders are calling off the campaign, saying they could not reach a self-imposed goal of recruiting 10,000 volunteers to collect signatures before September First. Recalling Doyle would have required the group to collect 540,000 signatures in a 60-day time frame.

Rather than continue the effort, WIN leaders say they plan to focus on removing Doyle from office during the next general election, coming up in 2010.
