Confirmed Senate "No" votes on AB15

This has been superceded by the January version.

Sat PM update #2 - still no word from Plale's office, but James Wigderson has a handy chart up on who is and isn't drinking the corn syrup, and he isn't wasn't buying Cathy Stepp's conversion.

So far, we have exactly one 2 3 4 5 6 7 of the 17 we need to kill this awful excuse of a bill (but still no word from Plale as of 1 pm 12/22) -

-Ted Kanavas (H/T -David - in the comments part of the link back to Badger Blogger)

- Neal Kedzie (H/T - James Wigderson)

- Mary Lazich (from both the comments by an anonymous source and James)

- Cathy Stepp, a former co-sponsor (thanks, Peter) - see, we can turn Senators back from the Dark Side.

- Tom Reynolds (H/T - LB2 - in the comments part in the link back to Badger Blogger)

- Joe Leibham (H/T - Kevin)

- Glenn Grothman (H/T - TomInWestBend - in the comments on the post from the Wigderson Library & Pub)

I'm still working on Jeff Plale (as of the Saturday AM update, still no word from Plale; it looks like he's going East Side again), and GBfan's working on Scott Fitzgerald. This will be updated as I get more info (a little bleg is in order; if your State Senator will be opposing AB15, let me know in the comments).

Tues early PM update - STILL no word from East Side Plale, but I added Tom Reynolds as a no.

Wed. early AM update - Joe Liebham is a "Solid No" according to Kevin. Time to send that certified letter to East Side Plale; still no response from his office (no, I won't go up to his house with waffles and flip-flops like Chris Kliesmet did during the daytime, or bang on his windows after dark like Voces de la Frontera did to Sen. Stepp).

Sorry; pulled my own comment. I sent it before my feed of James' blog came through.

I spoke with the chief of staff of Sen Cathy Stepp today, and he confirmed that Sen. Stepp will be voting NO on this bill.

Here at Inside the Beaver's Dam we continue to work on Senator Scott Fitzgerald. His brother, Representative Jeff Fitzgerald voted for the bill, a bad sign for fiscal conservatives.

Steve,
On Cathy Stepp, also thank Fred at RDW. He got it right from the horse's mouth!
