Given that the libs and unions spent $25 MILLION on mere state offices, ...

5 out of 6 is still a big "in your FACE!" to them.

Cheers!

i live 2 miles from the clinton’s- expensive and infested with hypocritical libs- but my wife’s from the area so its either get divorced or deal with it....it has its good parts and i lived here all my live (dad 23 years NYPD) but i am really starting to dislike it by the day because of the political landscape and the GOP in the area- which i’ve tried to latch onto, yet is nothing more but a bunch of watered down, girlie RINO’s...

LOL!! I am such a wimp that I couldn't watch neither the Bush/Kerry nor the McCain/Obama voting results and only got my updates from here. Seriously, I get too nervous. I have a feeling I'll be doing it for the 2012 elections too.

Very good news about Fond Du Lac which votes GOP by better than 60/40. Although we are currently losing in the close District 18 race about half the votes are coming from Fond Du Lac and NONE OF THOSE VOTES HAVE BEEN COUNTED. We should win that one.

They were right on the supreme court race a couple months ago. The Wisconsin republican machine is actually pretty good.

Dude - calm down...you need to understand which counties have reported. Darling is down because Milwaukee had reporting close to 60% of the vote. Waukesha, which is heavily Republican, has not even reported 1 precinct.

Thank you for your humor & note of encouragement. I was biting my fingernails but your note brought a smile & laughter to my face!

Hopefully Waukesha will come through again, like in the Prosser - Klopenturd election It is driving the RATs crazy to see Waukesha hold out on reporting and thereby the RATs are unable to determine how many votes they need to fabricate.

—These election night threads always make me nervous!

You’re looking at it the wrong way.
These threads are fantastic !!
Great commentary by some, total crap by others. It’s all the internet was meant to be.

AP is reporting 0 of 56 precincts in Fon du Lac reporting.

What numbers do you have? Post them or a link, please.
