About those emails to Gov. Walker

Gov. Scott Walker’s office Friday released tens of thousands of emails addressed to him from voters showing their sharply divided opinions about his union bargaining law.

The Republican governor said last month that emails sent on at least one day supported his stance on the legislation. But spokesman Cullen Werwie also acknowledged Friday that the governor’s office has not done a complete tally of all of them sent on that day, only a partial review.

Part of the emails had been divided by Walker’s staff into one folder of supportive emails and one folder of opposing emails. The ones for that day in the opposing folder appeared to be several times larger.

But a significant part of the emails for that day remain unsorted and at least a token number of items appear to have been incorrectly sorted.

An initial review by the AP of the e-mails found that a mass e-mail Walker sent to state workers on Feb. 11, the day he introduced his proposal, thanking them for their service was met with a deluge of responses, many of them angry.

"Please, keep your backhanded 'thank you's and empty compliments to yourself," one person who identified himself as a state corrections worker wrote to Walker. "Actions speak louder than words, and every one of your actions speaks quite clearly to your irrational hatred of the very people that have dedicated their lives and careers to keeping the state running safely and efficiently."
