SOS Candidate Ross Talks Caucus Connections

Dem SOS candidate Scot Ross openly admits the political work he did as a member of both Democratic caucuses was wrong. But he says others have made mistakes, too.

SOS Doug LaFollette has had several scrapes with ethics rules in his almost three decades in office, including a $500 fine for allowing a group his wife ran to use his state office.

Ross, who had taxpayers cover $3,895 of his legal bills during the probe that resulted in the convictions of five lawmakers, spoke with WisPolitics this morning about his caucus ties and how he'll respond to any attacks over his connections to the illegal work.
