Gov. Scott Walker
In this Sept. 23, 2014 photo Wisconsin Republican Gov. Scott Walker makes a re-election campaign stop at a small business in Racine, Wis. A federal judge on Tuesday, Oct. 14, 2014 put on hold Wisconsin's law limiting coordination between third-party groups and political candidates. The law is at the center of an investigation into Walker's 2012 recall campaign and more than two dozen conservative groups.
