Scott Walker has no soul. Tony Evers offers forgiveness, compassion.

 
Headline:  Wisconsin State Journal, 11/22/2023

Can you imagine these words coming out of the mouth of soulless Scott Walker?
“It continues to be a privilege to hear about individuals’ lives, work, and what they have done to overcome their past mistakes and build positive, rewarding lives for themselves and their families,” said the Democratic governor, who has pardoned far more people than any of his predecessors.  

How Tony Evers compares to his recent predecessors 

Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle granted almost 300 pardons during his two terms. Republican Govs. Tommy Thompson and Scott McCallum issued 262 pardons before Doyle took office. 
Evers' predecessor, GOP Gov. Scott Walker, issued no pardons during his two terms in office. Wisconsinites seeking a pardon need five years to have elapsed from the end of their criminal sentence. They can't have any pending criminal cases or charges against them in any jurisdiction, and people required to register at sex offenders are disqualified from the process. [emphasis added]
