Default Recall update - effort to recall 3 Dems fails

Republican efforts to recall Dems. Taylor, Risser and Coggs have failed.

A recall effort targeting two Democratic state senators has fallen short at the deadline.

Organizers had until Monday afternoon to turn in petitions to recall Sen. Lena Taylor of Milwaukee and Sen. Fred Risser of Madison. But the organizers failed to meet the deadline.

Election officials are currently reviewing petitions already turned in against five GOP senators and three Democratic senators. The senators are being targeted for their votes for or against a divisive bill that curtails collective bargaining rights for most public employees.

Organizers targeting Democratic Sen. Spencer Coggs of Milwaukee have until Tuesday to file a recall petition.

as a sidebar those Dr.'s writing the fake notes were punished. I have no problem with that but do with "The statement didn't identify the doctors, citing public employee records laws, and said "the school will not comment on individual cases."

'We' as in 'taxpayers' pay them and WTF is public employees records laws? Good Grief! Let's see who the f'ups were.

I don't see how the Board will end up being able to do anything - they would have to be able to actively disprove a valid doctor-patient relationship exists.

It's just a witch hunt.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin Grocers Association is warning its members to be on the lookout for opponents of Gov. Scott Walker who are planning to deface some products in grocery stores on May 1.

Walker opponents have urged consumers to boycott companies that have donated to the governor's campaign. The Journal Sentinel says there's a current effort to expand the boycott nationally by placing stickers on products in grocery stores. Among the targeted products are Johnsonville brats, AngelSoft toilet paper, Sargento cheese and Coors beer.

The grocers group has created a sign for stores to post alerting people that placing stickers on products in stores is illegal.

Not sure why they picked Coors and not all Miller products since MillerCoors is one company. I would prefer if these people think life is so bad here to just get the heck out of our state. Since the merger of Miller and Coors I have seen a substantial amount of high paying jobs move to WI, which in turn has helped our local economy. I guess we should be buying Tsingtao instead of Miller or Coors because that would be supporting a company and country that better reflects the beliefs of these morons.

Recount for Supreme Court, Prosser (winner) challenged by Kloppenburg under way. Have been some vote changes a few hundred this way and that so far, to be expected.

PDF file there under Recount Daily Totals, listing original votes in each precinct, and recounted vote total.

FYI Kloppenburg claimed victory with 200 some votes and is challenging the 7000 vote number she lost by. My guess is she grew up playing in a soccer league thats games always ended in ties.
