Scott Walker admits it: Former Wisconsin governor argues votes in metropolitan areas shouldn’t count as much as votes in rural areas (Media Matters for America, yesterday).

Since losing his bid for a third term as governor, Walker has turned to conservative punditry with a podcast called You Can’t Recall Courage — a reference to Walker’s escape from a 2012 recall election after he led a massive union-busting initiative. Walker also recently joined right-wing campus group Young Americans Foundation and, importantly, he is the national finance chair for the National Republican Redistricting Trust, which Politico described as “the GOP’s data and legal hub preparing for redistricting after the next census” in 2020.

During the July 5 edition of You Can’t Recall Courage, Walker offered further justification of his tweet. Complaining about high voter turnout in liberal-leaning Madison and “unbelievably big” Democratic margins of victory in districts in and around Madison, Walker said it’s a “flawed argument” to say that “a vote in Madison counts the same as a vote in a very rural community or in a suburban community.”
