1. there are 45000 absentee ballots from Milwakee County that haven't been counted. From MSNBC

[progree]

5. Thanks for info... My one and only contribution, a big one, was to Evers

I just pick one each cycle and make it big. So this is "my race"

[lunasun]

14. Thanks for helping him win !

[progree]

15. +++ with a race this close, maybe I could claim credit!

I recall I spent a lot on Barrett (2012?) and that went down the drain. Like all my contributions in recent years. Am hoping for a win finally.

6. If that's the case, looks pretty good for Evers...

He's getting about two-thirds of the vote in the county.

[still_one]

11. That is the case. One thing for certain is that this is NOT over

[meadowlark5]

2. Who are those stupid people?

Isn't everything in that state turning to shit and they continue to vote for him? No jobs, loss of revenue, education in the toilet. And there they are, voting for that chinless Koch lapdog.

21. It's not about economics. What fuels Republicans is racism and sexism, plain and simple.

[spooky3]

3. Kornacki said about 40k early and absentee ballots

from Milwaukee to be counted—he didn’t know about them.

[Thekaspervote]

4. Just saw here the n DU 45,000 absentee ballots out of Milwaukee yet to be counted. It's pretty blue

[LuvLoogie]

7. Yeah then waukesha finds 50 000 more

[TexasBushwhacker]

8. Recount triggers at .25% n/t

[Jersey Devil]

9. msnbc says they are counting 45,000 absentee ballots in Milwaukee in the next hour - nt

10. WHY does Walker keep getting reelected?

Do the voters not care what he does?

[progree]

12. And I keep throwing money at his opponents, hoping that for once it won't be money down the drain

maybe this time, at last.

And I'm from Minnesota, but for some reason (well I can name a few), I have a special "thing" about Walker.

We're having a great night in Minnesota, BTW. Gov, AG (Keith Ellison), Auditor and Sec of State and all that, flipped the MN House, might even pick up another US House seat. And both U.S. senators

[Demovictory9]

19. excellent

[Progressive Jones]

13. Fixed race. GOP always does it. nt

[progree]

16. Walker ahead by 652 votes (0.026%), 98% of precincts n/t

[TheRealNorth]

17. Precincts in Portage County & La Crosse County, City of Milwaukee Absentee ballots

Depending on where those votes in La Crosse & Portage County, 600 votes could be made up in those places alone. (both have State Universities). And there is the 45,000 City of Milwaukee absentee ballots, which I would think would break heavily for Evers.

It looks like the remaining Brown Co votes trended Dem, which offset the remaining precincts in Sheboygan & Manitowoc.


I don't see any large pool of Walker votes left unless Waukesha County has another spreadsheet error.

[Poiuyt]

18. Any word on when the absentee votes in Milwaukee will be counted?

I want to go to bed.

[Ace Rothstein]

20. Not sure how accurate this guy is but...

22. Should be soon

Just saw on Twitter from Mary Spicuzza (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter):
About 38,000 of those @cityofmilwaukee absentee ballots went to @Tony4WI, while just about 7,181 went to @ScottWalker. That should mean a win for Evers.

[TheRealNorth]

24. That should seal the deal for Evers

Unless the Republicans still have something up their sleeve.


ADDED That could put Josh Kaul over the top for the AG race as well.

[TheRealNorth]

23. According to JS Online

Evers now has a 1000 vote lead (12:58 AM CST). It looks like that may be due to some votes that came in from La Crosse and Portage counties.

Walker may potentially still have a couple thousand votes left scattered across Oconto, Marinette, and a few other sparsely populated northern Wisconsin counties.

[progree]

25. Wow, Evers (D) from virtual tie to 31,301 votes ahead (1.2% margin), sudden jump

must be those Milwaukee County absentee/early voting votes people have been yammering about
https://www.politico.com/election-results/2018/wisconsin/

Turn out the lights, the party is over? (for Snott Walker and his greedbanger cabal)
98.9% of precincts reporting

[still_one]

26. That is exactly what it is

[progree]

28. :-) :-) :-) n/t

[regnaD kciN]

29. If this holds, watch Scotty scream "vote fraud!!!"

Those damn cheating lib’ruls in Milwaukee, don’cha know?

[progree]

30. Tony Evers got his checkmark (for projected win) Margin: 29,050 votes, 1.12%, 99.5% precincts . :-)

https://www.politico.com/election-results/2018/wisconsin/

Must have been a late surge of votes from them illegals

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

27. Looks like Evers might pull it off.

Sad to see that Senselessbrainer and Grothmann were re-elected, though.
