The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports: The latest vote count in the state Supreme Court race in Winnebago County indicates incumbent David Prosser is leading Assistant Attorney General JoAnne Kloppenburg in votes. A tally compiled by The Associated Press Wednesday and used by news organizations statewide, including the Journal Sentinel, indicated Kloppenburg was leading the race by 204 votes. Figures on Winnebago County's website are now different from those collected by the AP. Winnebago County's numbers say Prosser received 20,701 votes to Kloppenburg's 18,887.

Not to worry.

The unions will find plenty of votes that were "lost" in the trunks of cars.

This election will be decided in a liberal court by a Socialist Judge, just like the WI budget bill is currently being denied by same!

20,701 minus 18,887 is not 40.

20,701 minus 18,887 is not 40.

Not the right math.

AP had Prosser with 19,991 and Kloppenburg with 18,421 for a difference of 1,570 votes.

The new count is Prosser with 20,701 and Kloppenburg with 18,887 for a difference of 1,814 votes.

1,814 less 1,570 is a difference of 244 votes. Kloppenburg had a lead of 204. With the 244 difference, Prosser leads by 40.

Well, the Republicans in Wisconsin should do like the Minnesota DFLs did in ‘08.

RECOUNT OVER, WE WIN!

Update: Randy Melchert says Prosser’s netted another 200 votes in New Berlin County while Kloppenburg’s only picked up a few in the (still ongoing) re-canvassing of Madison.
