Nelson survives first night, 2 a.m. wake up call
Rep. Tom Nelson, D-Kaukauna, survived the first night of his sit-in at the Assembly chamber, despite his air mattress deflating and having two "unidentified visitors" wake him up around 2 a.m.
Nelson said two people took a pillow from his head and gave him a surprised look when they uncovered him.
"They said, 'Whoa, we thought you were dead!'" Nelson said this morning. Nelson suspected the pair were Capitol staff and he believes they took a picture with a camera phone and then left.
Nelson expanded his movie collection at his desk to include an Oliver Stone box set and said that Rep. Andy Jorgenson, D-Fort Atkinson, and his family will join him for dinner tonight.
