The race to unseat Scott Walker is in full swing, with the Republican incumbent currently trailing<\/a> Democratic state school superintendent Tony Evers in one poll. But it\u2019s Evers\u2019 primary challenger Mahlon Mitchell who\u2019s found himself on the other side of some of the Guv\u2019s weirder tendencies.<\/p>\n

While campaigning in Milwaukee on Wednesday, Mitchell \u2014 a City of Madison firefighter who\u2019s also president of the Professional Firefighters of Wisconsin \u2014 was tailed by a \u201ctracker\u201d<\/a> from the Walker campaign. According Walker senior adviser Brian Reisinger, this is a common practice in politics, the employing of a camera-holding stooge whose primary job is to get the person in question to fuck up on a hot mic. But Mitchell proved to be a few steps ahead of his tracker.<\/p>\n
