Didn't see an actual thread we could use for a central point for election information today.
Lets do this Wisconsin!!!
Go Walker!
I hope the dead union thugs don’t show up in large numbers.
Done deal. Intrade has Walker up by 90%. Bye bye unions.
This deserved more information - where are the buses? If the guy wants to stop this, he needs to get the word out!
The host went off air to get the information from the caller to turn it over.

Do not call the DOJ! He will inform them to take a different route.

I thought there were four State Senators on the recall ballot also. Lose just one of those and the Rats gain control of the Senate.
I join you. Will be monitoring this thread off and on throughout the day.
Only until November if it happens. The elections also take place in new redistricted (by Republicans) maps in November.
Their success will be fleeting if it happens.
I suppose I am one of MANY following this development.
None of us would put this cheating past the union-liberal-left. But catching them would be nice.
Please keep us informed. And anyone who can notify radio people... do so when/if this is confirmed.
From Capital Conf:
Madison, Wisc. Don’t be surprised if members of the traditional, mainstream media claim a union victory even if Gov. Scott Walker wins the recall vote underway today.
That’s the buzz among well-placed Republican sources here who are hopeful that polling leading to the election is an indicator that Gov. Walker will prevail. However, they caution that it is likely the Democrats will win control of the Wisconsin Senate.
Democrats need to win just one of the four Senate recall elections taking place in the state to regain control of the Senate. It’s believed they have a better than even chance in one race and a 50-50 chance in another.
If the Democrats win control of the Senate, some in the mainstream media are likely to call the election a draw or possibly even a union win, which is a message the unions also will promote. But this verdict would be off base.
If Walker stays in office, the victory isn’t likely to do the Democrats any good.
Wisconsin’s legislature has adjourned for the year and the Senate cannot return to session unless the Republican-controlled Assembly agrees to do so or the governor calls them back.
Half of the Senate faces the voters in November. It’s expected that the Republicans will pick up at least two Senate seats at that time. By November the new legislative districts will be in use. These were drawn by the majority Republicans in 2011 and are tilted in the GOP’s favor
bump for later
Thank you!
If you remember the JFK quote, "Ich bin ein Berliner" translates into "I am a Jelly Doughnut". The word ein makes the quote become "I am the food for which the city is famous". Kennedy should have said: "Ich bin Berliner"
I guess this makes you a cheese stuffed bratwurst.
Recall Election ping!
Former resident of WI here (Pleasant Prairie) cheering on the good people of the Badger State to do the right thing and lay a crushing defeat onto these union thugs and their democrat sponsors.
I like these, in particular:
1. Wisconsin becomes a key swing state, causing panic among those pundits who declared that Mitt Romneys path to 270 electoral votes is very narrow.
2. Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) zooms to the top of the VP list on the arguments that hes so much less boring than the other front-runners, he can lock up Wisconsin, and the Ryan-Biden VP debate would be comedy gold, raising the question: After 30 minutes, should there be a mercy rule?
Praying for you Wisconsin here from Nevada. God bless your state and may Gov. Walker be given an overwhelming victory and be the spark that ignites a conservative revolution across our great nation.
