Default Wisconsin recall elections starts today

Today is the first day in the recall election process in Wisconsin.

If you remember, an angry Wisconsin electorate got enough signatures from citizens to put all six eligible Republicans on the ballot to go through the recall process.

Angry Republicans tried to recall six Democrats, but only got enough signatures for three to go through the recall process.

Today was supposed to be the Dem vs Republican recall election, however the Republicans filed a fake Democrat against every real candidate, thus today is not the Dem vs GOP election, it is the Democratic primary: the real candidates against the fake GOP running as "dems" in an effort to put off the election on their recalled GOP guys by a month. These "fake Dems" include three over 80-year-old lifetime Republicans, one 24 year old GOP up and comer wanting to advance in the party. None have tried to raise any campaign funds, they are on the ballot solely to try and confuse Democratic primary voters into not voting for the real Democrat.

Polls close at 9pm Wisconsin time. Wiphan, I suppose you will want to bet that all the GOP will win?
