The recount isn't even underway yet, and lo and behold! The GOP has magically "found" 7,500 mysteriously uncounted votes for Prosser in a heavily conservative district...

Gee, that was lucky, huh? Who could'a seen THAT coming???

Nothing mysterious about it. Either the TOWN was counted OR it was NOT - it's really that simple and gee, they have a paper trail.

Considering how massively corrupt and most all the republican in the state are puppets the Koch's, having votes "magically" appear isn't surprising.

lol. How about ballots "magically" DISappearing?

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:

The clerk in the county is a former staffer for the Repub caucus who has a history, don't be too sure there isn't some double counting. But whatever happened, they will get to the bottom of it.

Hahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaahhh.....


LOL!!


Supreme Court justice David Prosser has picked up more than 7,381 votes in Waukesha County, a conservative county outside of Milwaukee, as part of the statewide canvass following the election for Supreme Court on Tuesday. The total gives Prosser a comfortable lead as the canvass continues Friday.


The error came when Waukesha County clerk Kathy Nickolaus a Republican, failed to save some 14,000 votes that came from wards in Brookfield before passing the vote total along to the Associated Press. County officials discovered the mistake Wednesday and shared the information with state election officials on Thursday. Prosser won Waukesha County with more than 70 percent of the vote there.
Wisconsin sources say that the paper trail on the votes will be obvious and difficult for anyone to dispute. Either votes from Brookfield were counted in the initial tally or they weren’t. Still, the discovery of the extra votes is sure to stoke the embers of the heated battles that have taken place across the state over the past two months. A posting on the website (http://www.waukeshagop.org/womendir.html - broken link) of the Republican Women of Waukesha County indicates that Kathy Nickolaus recently served as president of that group

I watched the 18 minute video with Ms. Nickolaus explaining the events of the not counted votes. She apologized profusely and took responsibility for the error. She also stated that the revised results have been uploaded to the state records and she cannot make any further revision without direction from the state. Also, the Demo party Rep was on hand to verify the findings and correction as accurate and valid.

Not much wiggle room... Prosser was on Greta Show tonite... a veritable gentleman.

Just had to include the KloppJo video for general amusement. Egregious Kat Under N'e Terms
