Ruth Page Jones is taking no chances in the recount in the 97th Assembly District Primary. This morning the Wigderson Library & Pub has learned her campaign has hired Mike Maistelman of Maistelman and Associates for the recount.
Maistelman is probably most known for his role in getting the state elections board to rule against Congressman Mark Green during Green's race against Governor Jim Doyle in 2006.
Hiring Maistelman is a serious commitment of resources by Page Jones to ensuring her nine-vote victory margin in Tuesday's Democratic Primary election stands.
