The public unions, their allies nationwide, and the sycophants and shills represented by various posters in this forum totally shot their load - all of it - in this election, and the best they could do was barely eke out a dead heat.
How they do not see that the vast public no longer accepts or is willing to financially sustain public unions and their pensions and benefits, is simply a case of willful blindness.
Over the coming years, as more of the already 30+ states who have already done so removes the existence of public unions from their midst, which will likely also spill into the federal government sphere as well, their screeching and actions will no doubt have to become more extreme to be heard as they vanish with time. I look forward in time, to maybe 5-10 years down the road, when there are no public employee unions left. The taxpayer has spoken, and they get the last word.

You think the other side wasn't spending money??? There was MORE spent on the other side and he was an incumbent. His last race he had three opponents and had gotten 55% of the vote, so yeah, this dead heat is a big deal
Challenger JoAnne Kloppenburg has declared victory in her contest against incumbent Justice David Prosser after finishing with a two hundred vote lead in a contest headed for recount.
"Winnebago County's numbers say Prosser received 20,701 votes to Kloppenburg's 18,887. The AP has 19,991 for Prosser to Kloppenburg's 18,421.
The new numbers would give Prosser 244 more votes, or a 40-vote lead statewide."

LOL, let's hear the lefties whine!!
Ohhhhh yeaahhhhhh, there's gonna be some whining....
Quote:
David Prosser gained 7,582 votes in Waukesha County, after a major counting error of Brookfield results was detected, County Clerk Kathy Nickolaus announced in a stunning development this afternoon.
Nickolaus says the reason for the big change is that data transmitted from the City of Brookfield was imported but that she failed to save those results to the database. Brookfield cast 14,315 votes on April 5 -- 10,859 of those votes went to Prosser and 3,456 went to JoAnne Kloppenburg.
This could put Prosser beyond the 0.5% margin of mandatory recount. If so, the party requesting the recount will have to pay for that recount.
Then there is this allegation also:

As if the situation in Wisconsin wasn't tense enough, it appears that one county in particular is going to a new extreme. This comes after word that there may have been voter fraud in the nonpartisan State Supreme Court election yesterday between incumbent David Prosser and JoAnne Kloppenburg.
For some reason one of the counties in the state is destroying ballots that 'were not counted' yesterday. Apparently this is a very bizarre and egregious move.
There is now a call for an injunction to preserve the 'discarded' ballots:
I love how when Scott Walker was elected, to right wingers that gave him carte blanche to do whatever he wanted even if it was against popular opinion. But now that a liberal judge may be elected it's a "crisis" and a "hurdle" for the taxpayers. Perhaps the taxpayers have spoken, and they don't like what Scott Walker is selling? Maybe?
By the way, this is NOT an endorsement of Democrats or Unions. Merely pointing out hypocrisy when I see it.
Actually Scott Walkers former political position as Country Executive for Miwaukee was also won by a Democrat by a 61% to 39% margin. The guy that lost was hand picked by Scott Walker to be his successor.
If Conservatives can't see how outraged people in Wisconson are about what Scott Walker has done they are living in a bubble that insulates them from reality.
