I guess some "students" were recruited to help "count" the ballots. Anyone have ANY doubts what would happen to the Prosser ballots?
Most people were expecting a landslide for the liberal activist candidate, due to the hysteria, the money that poured in from the unions/Left and the bodies on the ground. To have basically a TIE is a humiliating defeat for the unions and the Left and demonstrates their "narrative" on the WI CB issue was and is hogwash. Meanwhile, other states are gung ho in their union busting activities...like OH.
Ahh yes, conspiracy theories with no proof whatsoever....

While I have no doubts these type of people would cheat, I still need to see a source for the allegations. Particularly, the destroying of ballots one. All we have is a blog and their source is a radio host who doesn't source anything.

What makes any of the Left assume even if she does win the CB bill would be overturned or even touched by the WI supreme court? The only question today of why the stay was enacted was because of the state's open meeting law. The GOP could put the bill up again, vote on it and see it become law.
If she wins, she doesn't take the seat until August.
Oh, and btw if you look across the state it looks like less votes were made in the County exec races than the Supreme Court Races pretty much across the board
Sarene brought up Dane County, which had about 10,000 more votes cast for Supreme Court than County Executive, the difference in Republican Racine County was about 4,000 votes, but Dane is quite a bit larger than Racine. Votes in the CE race in Madison was 94.15% of the votes cast for Supreme Court, in Racine the votes cast in the CE race was 92.13% of the votes cast for Supreme Court.
And sorry but I dont see this win as impressive. They Unions have had the narrative and the media on their side from day one.
Oh, PUHLEEEZE!!! Still in denial, I see. Many people who voted for Walker NEVER expected his roughshod behavior when he took office. About 270,000, it appears - seeing as how Prosser got almost all of the over 500,000 votes cast last time, but this time couldn't manage more than 50% of the 550,000 cast.
I'm not union, never have been, no one in my family is. Unions have NOTHING to do with this vote for Kloppenberg or Abele. It has to do with listening to BOTH sides. A Governor with his own personal axe to grind who refuses to listen to anyone who disagrees with him is postively frightening and needs to be removed. Until we can do that in January, sending a message via the Supreme Court race and County Exec in Milwaukee County is the best we can do - along with the recall petitions which are doing nicely.

Ozaukee is primarily rural and Republican and, for those not familiar with the City, Mequon is FILTHY RICH. Mequon is primarily inhabited by lawyers, CEOs, investment managers, and others earning multi-millions a year. For that reason, I do NOT believe this. Not for a minute.
If any ballots were maliciously and intentionally destroyed, they were ballots for Kloppenberg.

Denial again, I see.
Doesn't anyone get, yet, that people from all walks in Wisconsin are FURIOUS with Walker.
It is Walker's stubborn, obdurate behavior that frightens people - not to mention the vacant eyes that go along with the vacant brain.

In other news, another strong message has been sent to Walker. His former position was up for a vote as well, where democrat Chris Abele annihilated the GOP contender taking 61% of the vote

1.4+ million votes were cast.

Unions and the Left poured MILLIONS into the supreme court race - making it a poster child for the rage and anger from the CB bill - that was their strategy. They sent bodies from across the country into WI for this race.

Obvious WIs are NOT furious with Walker. Leftists and unions are though. Outside of the liberal bastion of Dane county (UofWI) and Milwaukee county, the leftist candidate got CLOBBERED state wide.

After reading this thread I understand where the nickname "Cheesehead" originated.
