Update (AP): Good lord. With just 10 precincts still left to report, Kloppenburg now leads by 140 votes — 738,368 to 738,228. Of the 10 remaining precincts, eight are in counties where Kloppenburg currently leads. Gulp.

If you’re holding your breath waiting for the recount to start, exhale now. It’ll be a long, long time coming. Update (AP): Just five precincts to go now and Kloppenburg’s lead has opened to not quite 500 votes.

I thought an hour ago the AP was reporting Prosser ahead by 800 votes with only 10 precincts uncounted.

And where are all you Freepers who ridicule California as going down the toilet? Looks like Wisconsin is right up there with Cali. Fortunately, they still have a Republican Governor and Legislature (for a few more months until the RATs do their recalls successfully while the Pubbies fail). Just hope the gov lays off a flock of the union folks before he gets his first term shut down by the “new supreme court.”

For every ‘Rat-leaning district they recount and increase their margin by 1%, we re-count a ‘Pub-leaning district and gain 2%. That's the only way this is ever going to change, I'm telling you. If we play the “nice guy loser” role one more time, we're going to get rolled.

It is just as criminal for our guys to do it as theirs. It needs to be proven and convictions and punishment must result; that will be the beginning of change.

They were. Now there are only 3 precincts left and Klopp is up by 224.

Wisconsin legislature had ample time to pass voter ID......Can Republicans with majority in House, Senate, and having Governorship be this stupid

YES THEY CAN!

[marstegreg]

What’s with Dane county? of the 180,000 votes 133,000 went to Klopp. I am not from Wisconsin but that seems a little lopsided. All the other counties were much closer. There were 1 or 2 that leaned a lot more one way than the other, but not with that volume.

Its a win for non union issues.

In a Union State

We know their was Illinois people voting for the Union Candidate and Millions spent on the campaign.

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Wait till they find all those “forgotten” ballots in election officials car trunks for the “recount”. (Al Franken)

[jwalsh07]

Madison is in Dane County, that means college students and lefty loons to the left of San Francisco loons galore. And they turned out to the tune of 55% much higher than Waukesha which is a conservative county with a lot of potential votes. Turnout counts.

[IDRATHERNOT]

Dane county is the home Madison — state government and University of Wisconsin.

Probably 70% of Dane county pulls directly or indirectly a check from the government.

[Dead Corpse]

And there we have it. The old "throw in the towel"/"let's accept losing" line.

You do realize this is how we got where we are today? We know they cheated. We can prove it. We never make it stick nor really fight back because we "play by the rules" and we can "get them next time".

Those rules only apply to those who follow them. THEY don't and they will beat us EVERY time.

When you are done singing Kumbaya and wanting to "work within the system", you let the rest of us know and we'll get going on fixing our Country at last.

[Sopater]

Good question. I smell a RAT.

[marstegreg]

This county has one precinct left to count and it went 58% for prosser.

Jefferson 40/41 (Precincts counted) 12,860 58% (for Prosser) / 9,365 42 % (Klopp.)

That’s encouraging...

[PSYCHO-FREEP]

Not after the Election Theft team takes over. It will wind up exactly like Minnesota. Wisc. has stacked their election officials with hard core Leftists like Minnesota.

A close election like this a guaranteed “steal” for their side.

[glennaro]

The Wisconsin Democrat Socialists can manufacture votes, but they cannot manufacture the money to pay for the results.

Economic reality tends to punish severely those who fight to avoid it.

[Sopater]

Being as Dane County is Madison, I wonder how many of those votes are from non-residnt students at UW...

[Dead Corpse]

And what will our "play by the rules" side do? What it's always done...

"*chuckle* Well shucks. It looks like we lost. Oh well, we can try again next time because we play by the rules by golly..."

People need to be serving jail time for the fraud repeatedly perpetrated on the voting public. The "system" failing to get even that right, then we need wholesale tar and feathering of these a&&holes.

“a false presentation”
“The study found 64 percent of
Adams County’s 5th and 6th
districts, 59 percent of Dodge’s
31st District and 53 percent of
Dodge’s 29th District are prisoners.
In these districts, constituents get
double the electoral power of other
voters. James Layman, the Dodge
31st supervisor, who describes
himself as a conservative-leaning
independent, says the inequality
should be addressed. ‘I think that’s
a false presentation because I don’t
represent those people,’ he says of
the prisoners.”

Just thought you should know. This is according to the 2011 cencus

[who knows what evil?]

Nice little corrupt hellhole you’ve got there, Wisconsin...
