Assembly Dems urge Falk to run for AG

A group of ten Democrats in the State Assembly have signed on to a letter urging Dane County Exec Kathleen Falk to run for Attorney General.

Falk has toyed with the idea for a while, but with recent polling data showing Lautenschlager is vulnerable to a primary challenge, she looks set to jump into the race.

Lautenschlager may be doing some good things at the state level, but her past legal and ethical problems leave her vulnerable to losing the seat. If Democrats want to retain it, they could do far worse than having Falk run in 2006.
