2. Probably...
I hope someone goes to jail forever if they get caught rigging the vote count.

3. John Nichols is saying it may get down to re-count and
that Waukesha is "troubling" because that's where they fucked up the Supreme Court vote.

Seems like they know how to "fix" it in Waukesha.

5. Never mind the fact that we have Democrats at all precincts who have given totals to the state party
They can't change those #'s.

Thank dog that's been in cache/clipboard.

9. I can hear Nickolaus now...
"Are you kidding? 1100 votes? It's late, and my hand is already awfully tired...".

8. It's just as possible that they're making doubly sure of the count this time
because of the flack they took over the court cmpaign. Think positive! I am!

10. Yes. And there are several groups observing all polling places.
They are making sure seals match and bags are secured and all processes followed.

the bulk of those people were not there in previous elections. But we'll be in every one from now on, I assure you.

12. She's gotten by with this twice now & something funky is going on again...
Why should we be reassured? She's even been criticized by Rethugs. Why is she still in the job? Any idea?

14. Perhaps they're stunned by the Pasch win and are reluctant to report
it without recounting and counting again. ;)

11. Can't believe those same election workers are still in place.
Can't we clean up the corruption in this country instead of
leaving it in place election after election?
Diebold shouldn't even be in the business of elections
after Bush v Gore

16. The dems should request that no more results be made public until
they have them from Nicolaus.

19. They do have them. The state party has had the precinct totals from their people at the polls.
They call totals into a boiler room.

DPW knows who won.
