Political Pals and the Wisconsin Candidacies
The article discusses independent candidacies of James Thompson and C B Ballaré filed with the secretary of state by Louis B Nagler, a wartime espionage convict linked to La Follette politics. It argues Nagler’s associations reflect broader tensions in party leadership, wartime loyalties, and democratic policy as Wisconsin politics navigate discipline, dissent, and candidate alliances. It weighs the Nonpartisan movement, Townley’s Minnesota legacy, and public acceptance of controversial coalitions amid calls for lawful oversight rather than partisan expediency.
