(UNDATED) Governor Mitt Romney says he supports Wisconsin's Voter ID Law. He joked about the law Saturday while visiting Republican volunteers working a Scott Walker phone bank in Fitchburg.
Romney praised Governor Walker as a principled reformer and also asked the volunteers to vote for him on Tuesday, "In my state we joke vote early and vote often and I am afraid the other side has been doing that a bit too much in some places. I like Voter ID laws by the way... more of them."
Wisconsin's new Voter ID law of course won't be enforced tomorrow. A suit challenging it's constitutionality is pending before the state Supreme Court.
About one hundred protesters greeted Romney during his Fitchburg stop. But there were a few pro Romney signs waving in the crowd too. Christopher Hansen of Verona carried one of his three year old twin boys on his shoulder and a sign reading "Mad for Mitt" in the other, "We think he's an ultra competent person that's what we want in the White House. I think we need someone who has private sector experience and done well in government and also has good international experience with the Olympics and so forth. I think he's kind of the ideal candidate for the problems we face today. "
Romney told the Fitchburg volunteers he's getting more more confident about winning the Republican nomination.
