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.

i hope no one boycotts angel soft tissue. a lot of people work at gp, including my husband...we aren't responsible for a couple of rich owners' politics.
boycotts always hit the employees, not the billionaires who are the target.

No worries. This could not have been a better advertisement for the product. Many more will try it (like me) and become customers than will boycott it, trust me. Besides don't these people use bark or brown recylcled paper anyway?


And brats please? Mind has well boycotted dear hunting licenses and fishing poles.

If only you ever read a newspaper, or an internet news story Then you'd know why she filed the recount.

Speaking of recalls, the Dems have another GOP on the recall ballot. The GOP doesn't seem to be able to get any more Dems (they failed the last three they tried to get sigs for)

Today, the Committee to Recall Robert Cowles submitted over 25,000 signatures -- more than the required 15,960 -- to the state’s Government Accountability Board, becoming the ninth recall drive of state senators the board is reviewing that could eventually trigger a recall election. Of the nine, six target Republican state senators like Cowles, and three target Democratic state senators.

Dog and Pony Show. Again she declared victory based on 200 votes and we are recounting after a 7,000 vote victory.

BTW what the local papers and comments are saying (in Wisconsin not Huffington)


Given the vote margin, should the taxpayers being paying for the state Supreme court recount?



We didn't record your vote, because this poll has been closed.

Response Percent Votes
Yes 33% 45 votes
No 64% 86 votes
No opinion 1% 2 votes
133 total votes

Suggest removal The law should be changed that you can ask for the recount within that margin, but if you lose your paying for it.

There is no real resaon for this recount and the Klop. team wouldnt have bothered if their own money was at risk.

Suggest removal It's funny, the people that are for the recount are the same ones that thought it was okay for the 14 to run away to Illinois rather than do their jobs. And for the protestors to use fake doctor excuses.

Suggest removal it is allowable under the law, so why should she not have the right to a recount?

Suggest removal This question makes it sound like this is money out of our pockets. I think most of the "cost" is the salary of people who will be doing the recount, but who would be getting that salary anyway. We taxpayers have already paid for their services. Perhaps a better question would be, do we want them to do the recount or some other whatever-it-might-be thing they would do instead? I mean no disrespect whatsoever for those people and their important and honorable jobs.

Suggest removal No count with that big of a margin has ever been reversed in Wisconsin or any other state. This may be within the law but doesn't mean you need to abuse the taxpayers for it.

Many republicans, at least in my area, haven't returned from their winter homes yet. They must be harder to find since they all don't group together like dems do. Talking WI not the country.

Dates for recall are past. Can't be done.

The results of the Dems actions won't only be reflected by recalls. There is a super secret republican boycott going on that I'll let you in on. Numerous well-to-do folks have finally had it, pulled the trigger, and bought FL homes/condos (available now for dimes on the dollar) as winter retreats. Six months and one day a year allows them to file as FL residents saving 6.5%/year and thus no longer have a part in supporting the bloated government and its unions. When you're talking $300K/year of tax liabilities it's $19,500/year in tax saved or $1,625/month. A free house/condo for just moving! Figure in these properties will likely double, triple or go even higher than that in the next 30 years they are turning a $585,000.00 tax payment into a $1.7 million profit a 2 and a quarter million dollar difference. All by simply following the tax laws. And so as to not bum you out too much they will still support the local community and education in the form of property taxes and will now be pitching in for the education of kids in Marco Island, Long Boat Key and other beautiful spots. They can also say goodbye to winter heating bills though some of that will be offset by air conditioning on real hot days.

I have a lot in Marco, purchased in 1988, you can buy And before you try and predict the Florida real estate market futures, I suggest you google "Medicare fraud" and "Rick Scott".

Oh, Dell, you make me laugh.
