Kloppenburg's campaign is working with Marc Elias, an attorney with Perkins Coie, a Washington D.C.-based firm with an office in downtown Madison. Elias is the same attorney who represented Democratic challenger Al Franken in his eight-month epic recount battle with incumbent Republican Norm Coleman. Franken eventually prevailed, winning his U.S. Senate seat by 312 votes.
Prosser has hired Ben Ginsberg, a Washington-D.C. attorney who played a prominent role in the 2000 Bush-Gore presidential recount effort in Florida. He was also part of the team that represented Coleman in his recount effort. Prosser has also retained Madison attorney Jim Troupis, and Dan Kelly, who is based in Milwaukee.

Maybe Walker gets to make a temporary replacement.
Just keep recounting them until the Left wins.
Win, lose, or draw, this is no way to live. I am starting to believe that Pinarin and the Russian foreign ministry are right and that the United States is no longer a viable country and needs to be split up. You can’t have a viable country in which, at any given time, half the people are walking around feeling totally subjugated; likewise, no marriage this bad would last fifteen seconds and everybody knows it. We need to be trying to come with a rational divorce settlement which hopefully would not involve a civil war.
Judge Prosser should contact James Baker ASAP.
This is the Texas lawyer-—who was Bush’s Secy of State——credited with legally outmaneuvering the Gore people in the infamous FLA recount.
That is a great idea......lets hope Prosser fights this to the finish.
I live in WI and the Milwaukee Ballots are being held in a warehouse. However, members of the republican party are watching the canvassing process and it is open to the public. You can read more in the article on jsonline.com. The article is titled “Behind the scenes, Milwaukee shifts from Counting to Canvassing”.
First step is to show clear voter fraud examples during this election and thus super-size the commonsense purpose with moral authority. Wouldn't it be something if the plan by Walker was to wait on implementing a Voter ID law until after the first election during his term where presumably instances of fraud/illegal alien votes could be proved?
“Maybe Walker gets to make a temporary replacement”
I have read that the seat would stay vacant and that any decision would be made by those seated, in which case the court would split 4-4 if you broke it down by Republican vs. Democrat appointees.

I mean, I can see trying to disappear a 200-vote gap but how can these fools think lawyers are going to remove an 8000-vote deficit?? For that you need magicians and prestidigitators, not lawyers.
Obama ran in British Columbia?
Bet they love him on East Hastings Street, the huge druggie area of Vancouver.<->
They need lawyers to fabricate “irregularities” and a judge activist to back them up and claim the election was tainted, ergo, null and void.
The list of who voted at a given polling place is an open record. Go to the polls closest to the university in Madison, plus polls in neighborhoods where there are lots of illegals and get copies of those lists. Take the last 100 people who voted at each poll (I'm guessing fraud is most likely to happen late in the day, when they knew how many votes they needed) and verify each name to see if the person (1) is alive, (2) still maintains his primary legal residence in that district, and (3) is eligible to vote (citizen, non-felon, over 18).
If a significant percentage of voters turn out to be non-eligible, have the Gov hold a press conference where he lays out the result of the investigation, and then demands Voter ID.
Which is why Voter ID needs to be passed next week. They will not demand a new election if their power to cheat is greatly diminished.
I agree with all you say, but I was thinking more in terms of them pulling out those votes now before their canvass is in. That makes it easier for the judges to go along with it, too.
After the canvass, it’s just a matter of getting the judges to rule their way on the provisionals and....voila! They win.
Yes, I agree 25k is kind of a tall order, but certainly doable. Believable? No. But a lefty judge in a lefty county has nothing to worry about if he goes with the left’s position. He doesn’t care if it’s believable.
Canvass was supposed to have finished yesterday at 5:00 pm and the news of the screw-up did not leak into the press before that deadline. That is what makes this so delicious. The ‘rats did not know they had a problem until after it was too late to easily fix it. Now they have to depend solely on provisionals or (maybe) rejecting absentee ballots.

But the ultimate arbiter on all of these decisions is the WSC. And they do not want to look like a clown posse, regardless of their political beliefs. Lower judges will have to use a uniform standard for accepting/rejecting provisionals. You can push the count 1000 or so either way, but to get 7000 with a uniform set of standards is not really likely. Possible, but not probable.
I’m wondering whether Wisconsin’s attorney general is one of George Soros’s Secretary of State project shills?
WI has a Democrat-runner-advising SOS.
Can’t we just have an election in which the lawyers DO NOT become overnight millionaires.
