Six Republican state senators face a recall vote today in Wisconsin. Two senate Fleebaggers face recall elections next week. Democrats need to pick up three seats to gain control of the Wisconsin senate.
By the way, a liberal Chicago donor sent $200,000 to fund the far left recall candidates.
The turnout was heavy today.
JS Online has election results.
The AP also has election results
UPDATE: It’s unlikely that democrats will win District 2 or District 10. The Republicans are too far ahead with nearly half the precincts reporting.
State Senate – District 2 – General August 09, 2011 – 08:47PM CT Wisconsin – 44 of 90 Precincts Reporting – 49% Name Party Votes Vote % Cowles , Robert (i) GOP 10,777 57% Nusbaum , Nancy Dem 8,029 43%

Answered prayers.
For tonight, it’ll be decided in District 8.
We know that Darling won the 8th?
Great news. Wins despite the Lefts fraud and gross abuse of authority.
Actually it doesn’t look like the tally is in.
Wishful thinking. Thinking wishfully.
Still disappointing. I wanted the thugs to be completely repudiated.
Maybe next week will bring vindication.
MSNBc dedicated most of their network coverage to the election tonight. I bet they regret that call..... :-D
This makes me wonder if the ‘flashmobs’ were vote suppression?
Great news indeed! Now if we can manage to recall a few Democrats!
Thank you for this post. I’ve been wondering how the Recall Election in WI was going. Thanks again.
“with 98 percent in, it’s Darling 30,868 to 28,170”
I thought sending that amount of money was illegal.
There's still an opportunity next week to replace Democrat Holperin with a TeaParty candidate (Kim Simac) in a majority Republican district.
Is that enough of a lead not to have a recount or an automatic recount?
Just think what the unions could have done with all the money they spent in Wisconsin... they could have done things like spring for some union-paid training courses so their members could better themselves... think of the possibilities... but nooooo - they had to take union money and play politics with it...
L.O.FREAKING L.
We need the “ha ha” boy from the Simpsons on this thread.
A stick in the eye for the left.
May it be yet another among many.
It's really nice to see a “liberal Chicago donor” piss away $200,000 and wind up with
So after all the threats, lawlessness, temper tantrums, fleeing the state, millions of dollars spent and coordination that reached as far as the W.H. the Democrats only managed to pick up a liberal district and a swing district where the Republican cheated on his wife and moved out of the district. Hardly a referendum against the policies implemented in Wisconsin. Next week Republicans have the chance to return the favor and take a vulnerable Dem incumbent and who knows...maybe they’ll pick off 2 and be essentially right back where it all began. LOL
Oh and I love that one Wisconsin district. Finally at least one county has gotten wise to the dems cheating. ;)
And the Democrats are deeply saddened. ;o)
