BARABOO, Wis. -- A petition is being circulated among the congregation of St. John's Lutheran Church in Baraboo for a revote to reinstate former St. John's school Principal John Hartwig.Hartwig was fired by a vote in March at a meeting where women were not allowed to speak.Many said Hartwig's biggest supporters were women. Hartwig was fired mainly because of his beliefs that women should be respected more in the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod Church, WISC-TV reported.The church offered no comment about the petition or about whether a vote could happen Sunday to bring in a new principal to the Lutheran school.

GJ - My advice is - Get a divorced pastor. All the divorced pastors are told by their second wives to institute women's suffrage. And they do! DMLC wives are pretty good in that role - taught by Papa Teddy Hartwig.
