Yes, very aware Waukesha is highly GOP. You might also recall I thought the 7000 votes nothing more than a stupid mistake (rather than vote fraud).
Although Waukesha has been astoundingly incompetent in the screwups so far with the way they do things (wrong tags on bags, unsealed bags of votes, etc) But that's one of the reasons Kloppenberg wanted the recount, too - so the public could have an idea of how their elections are handled, and institute needed changes (so 7000 votes won't appear magically 48 hours after an election, when the clerk knew they existed but still had the Dem reps sign off on the election before bringing them forth)

Of course, Prosser could indeed win, if he wins over 80% of the vote or so in Waukesha. We'll see.

How filthy is this state right now? How can the county in dispute go last in the recount? Good God. Your gunna tell them what the statewide count is presently? Children, please!

Mozart fits that state. Wagner, even more so.

Over, good guys win by 7,006.

so with a million and half votes the recount differed by 310. She goes out the same she came in wanting to do. Spending the public's money. Quarter million dollars for 300 votes.

If you think a "good guy" is a man who is supposed to be impartial, but has publicly said he will not be, he'll be an overtly activist judge.

Naw - not a good thing at all in my book for a judge.

The good thing that did come out of this is full exposure of the marked deficiencies some counties in Wisconsin (Waukesha, anyone?) as completely incompetent electorially (unsealed bags, switched tags, wrong paperwork, lost and misplaced votes, etc). So at least the elections will be better run in the future.

As someone who always made fun of the Democratic machine in Chicago, Dell, I'm sure you're happy when the same type of nonsense is uncovered and fixed in Wisconsin

I said the idiot responsible should be fired and she's republican. Never heard a peep about her dismissal as rep or dem she's a fed and untouchable, probably close to her retirement and beni's for life on the taxpayer. All for being a f'up.

No. She's the locally elected County Clerk.

Complete nonsense. Repubs already have elected her, as a Prosser-faithful Repub who escaped felony ethics charges on a state level by turning states evidence against her fellow Repubs who went to jail. She used to work for Prosser. The county clerk position is her paid political reward for being a good party hack.

And you call a publicly-admitted-politically-activist-admitted-non-impartial state supreme court judge a "good guy"?

Our country is screwed.
