evidence: BROOKFIELD, Wis. — The Republican gubernatorial primary in Wisconsin initially appeared to be Rebecca Kleefisch’s for the taking. Kleefisch, the former lieutenant governor, launched a well-funded campaign nice and early, in September, and speedily commanded a lead over lesser-known opponents, enjoying significant name recognition from her eight years as Republican Gov. Scott Walker’s No. 2. [...] On Wednesday, Pence stumped for Kleefisch there with Walker, saying, "There is no candidate for governor in America that is more capable, more experienced or a more proven conservative than Rebecca Kleefisch."
