Hugh. The unions put millions into this campaign, only to lose. There is hope, my friends.

Good news, but I’ll be VERY surprised if there isn’t a challenge/appeal by the commies.

Me too. But — unlike the recount, the cost of which the taxpayers bore — any court challenge will have to be funded by the crybabies themselves.

Maybe I’m an idiot, but, on what basis could she file a lawsuit? There was canvassing done before the recount, which confirmed the original results. And now the official statewide recount, which with minor changes, also confirmed the original results, and leaves a 7000+ vote margin between the candidates.

We know the liberals are p*ssed off that she lost, but, legally speaking, to drag this into court, what possible grounds could there be? Minor changes in vote totals happen in all elections, as canvassing and reviews are done, even if it’s not a close election.

Legally, doesn’t there have to be evidence of lawbreaking or fraud to get this into court? Maybe I’m an idiot, but, I just don’t see what legal issues she could have at this point.

If Walker is smart he will use the certification now and install Prosser immediately. Doubt he will do that since Republicans like punishment and he will delay giving the RATS time to organize riots.

She could sue under a theory that the recount wasn’t properly conducted...which would fail.

They know she has no chance of winning a lawsuit. But, as with everything else with liberals, that is no the point of the lawsuit. The lawsuit is to be filed simply to possibly prevent Prosser from taking his seat on the appointed day, so he will not be able to vote on the constitutionality of the government unions lawsuit. That is the target....................

They will manufacture the BIg Lie that voters were disenfranchised or some such to try to press it in court.

It's all about keeping their base angry and stirred up for the next election and trying to de legitimize the Republicans

Not to put too fine a point on it, but since when do Commies need a legitimate issue in order to file a lawsuit, stage a violent protest, call their opponents ‘racists’, or do just about anything that’s fraudulent, abusive, or evil?

In other news, the GOP decided they wouldn't challenge 1984 Presidential Election results in Minnesota which showed native son Walter Mondale winning the state's electoral votes over Ronald Reagan by a margin of 3,761 votes cast out of 2,068,967, for a winning margin of 0.18%.

A historic 50 state sweep would have been nice, but Fritz would finally complete his 50 state loss some 14 years later as a last minute stand-in for Paul Wellstone.

Yep, she's got until Tuesday, May 31st. If she is advised to appeal she'll wait until the last day, just to stretch the process out. This has always been about delaying the inevitable, in order to keep Prosser from being re-seated.

Prosser already sits on the Supreme Court, this election is for the next term, which doesn't begin until August 1st.

Correction: It took 18, not 14 years, for Mondale to complete his 50 state loss.

Democrats don’t want the solution they want the issue.

They want the suit so they can point to the union busting being upheld as “illigitimate”
