Scott Walker: Working hard for Milwaukee taxpayers

Do you think Milwaukee County Executive Scott Walker mentions this little fact (reported in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel) when he is in Milwaukee praising the voucher program?
the non-partisan state Legislative Fiscal Bureau in Madison that showed that Milwaukeeans, in effect, pay about $1,000 more in property taxes per student in the voucher program than they pay in property taxes per student in MPS. The figures provided by Robert Lang, director of the bureau, showed that the property tax levy on city taxpayers works out to $2,858 for each voucher student and $1,816 for each MPS student.
Do you think Congressman Mark Green and Rep. Leah Vukmir mentioned it at their 'non-political' campaign event in Milwaukee?
