QUOTE: Education is typically one of those issues that voters say they care about, but they seldom cast ballots driven by the subject. But this year, schools have roared to the forefront in a handful of races. Nowhere is that more evident than Wisconsin. The left-leaning Center on Budget and Policy Priorities recently reviewed changes in per-student spending since the economic recession in 2008. Wisconsin had the second-biggest cut, adjusted for inflation, with each student receiving $1,000 less than in 2008. Walker was elected in 2010 and almost immediately started cutting budgets — and unions power. Hes been a target since, becoming in 2012 the first governor to survive a recall attempt. That doesnt mean teachers have given up.
