This is reminding me of 2000...a real nail biter!

Let’s all pray for a miracle......

[Catsrus]

Let’s keep the faith. Its hard at times, I know.

WOW this entire race has been like Game 7 of the NBA Finals..back and forth, crazy stuff! ---------------------------------- My thot exactly. Seriously, bracket schmacket! Collegiate basketball pales in comparison.

Dane has cast 77% of the vote total in the 2010 gubernatorial election. Thus far Waukesha has only cast 61% of that total. If waukeshas turns out like Dane turned out they still have about 30,000 more votes to count to get to about 140,000 this election versus 185k in 2010. And Prosser will net maybe 15,000 votes based on winning about 75% in Waukesha.

But who knows, AP sucks.

Washburn went 52-48 for the Kommunist

Looks like the union is trying to make it a recount so they can cheat.

[Reo]

Interesting results from Waukesha: Waukesha 130/198 81,255 or 73% for Prosser to 29,332 or 27% for the dim. Looks like some delayed reporting in a strong Prosser area with 68 precints still to send in totals. Dane County a Dim stronghold, is almost in now, so that’s good.

Walker will have another chance to earn his money.

YES AND AMEN!

If AP is right about Waukesha being all in(seems like a very low turnout there) the the union thug will win, with the Milwaukee & Madison precincts.

Damn just damn, hope they are wrong about Waukesha.

[Fido969]

82,000 positive net of Kommuklangers vores came from Dane county!

How many of the students that voted there were Wisconsin residents and paid Wisconsin taxes?!

[OddLane]

AP sucks.

Finally, something we can all agree on.

[fwdude]

It’s virtually impossible for recent elections to be this close, with the same number voting for as against. It’s not a fair election.

[Longbow1969]

My projection right now is Prosser by 300 votes.

How are you arriving at Prosser winning considering the outstanding precincts would seem to favor the union hag?

[comebacknewt]

how so, when Dane and Milwaukee are the only major counties left with precincts to report, and Prosser only up 2K now?

I think the hope is AP might still have some mistakes and maybe there are more Waukkesha votes to report in. If not, then your take is likely correct.

[teletech]

If the Democrat is ahead, there is no recount. If the Republican is ahead, they recount until the Democrat is ahead, then they stop the recount.

That's called the Al franken rule isn't it?

[MHT]

How much longer do you think it will take? And, any comment from local media regarding absentee counting?

[ratsreek]

Damn straight. I wish I wasn’t 2,000 miles away. I’d be down there at the crack of dawn with my sign that would say “Don’t even think about it, you rat assholes”, a pair of hidden brass knuckles, a sap, and my pepper spray.....and I’m a girl!

[so_real]

I am simply dumbfounded that it is this close. Unbelievable!

[afraidfortherepublic]

Absentee ballots are counted with all the people who voted in person. None will be added after this — or, there shouldn’t be any added.
