Green Bay's Notre Dame Academy Grad Dishonors the School

It's been revealed that Mayor Eric Genrich of Green Bay sold his city clerk's (election-oversight) office to Mark Zuckerberg for $1.5 million pieces of silver dollars.

The Mayor is a graduate of Green Bay's Notre Dame Academy which used to be a girls' school.  (We will charitably assume that he was part of an integrated class.)

What does "sold his (election -oversight) office to Mark Zuckerberg" mean?

Glad you asked.  This is the executive summary; read the rest at this link.

Hundreds of pages of emails and other documents obtained by Wisconsin Spotlight show that grant money from private left leaning groups, funded largely by Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, resulted in Democrat activists infiltrating the November presidential election in Wisconsin’s five largest cities.

Here’s what the emails and Wisconsin Spotlight’s investigation found:

  • A former Democratic operative, Michael Spitzer-Rubenstein, served as a de facto elections administrator and had access to Green Bay’s absentee ballots days before the election
  • Spitzer-Rubenstein asked Green Bay’s clerk if he and his team members could help correct or “cure” absentee ballots like they did in Milwaukee.
  • Green Bay’s clerk grew increasingly frustrated with the takeover of her department by the Democrat Mayor’s staff and outside groups.
  • Brown County Clerk Sandy Juno said the contract stipulated that Spitzer-Rubenstein would have four of the five keys to the KI Center ballroom where ballots were stored and counted.
  • Brown County’s clerk said the city of Green Bay “went rogue.”
  • Election law experts said the city illegally gave left-leaning groups authority over the election.

 Green Bay has been a left-of-center town for dozens of years; back in the 1950's it was known as 'the Catholic divorce town'; annulments were cheap and easy.  So it's not a surprise that the moral formation offered at Notre Dame failed in at least this case.

In the 11/4 canvass, Trump lost Green Bay by about 3,600 votes--in the 2016 election, Trump lost to Clinton by almost the same number.

So.  Did this blatant selling of election integrity cost Trump the Green Bay vote?  Probably not.

But it cost much more:  the trust of citizens in "the system."

Librarian and Catholic school grad Genrich should meditate on that after his resignation.
