Was that county's voter turnout 33% before the 7000 or after? |
|
That's the statewide number, 33% voter turnout.
If after these votes are added, the voter turnout percentage is a huge outlier, like up to 45% or something, there's your answer.
They can't fight math.

6. Thanks. That was very helpful. |
|
It sort of answers my question and yet doesn't. It compares past elections, not the direct voter turnout percentage comparison for this election.

The population of the city that the 10000 republican votes came from is 30,000. If 14,000 votes were cast, nearly half of the population of the city would have voted. Wisconsin democrats better jump on this one, some astounding claims are being made by the republican official.

8. You mean the population of registered voters, don't you? |
|
Brookfield's population is about 39,000, so 30,000 would be a reasonable estimate for the number of registered voters. 14,000 votes would mean a 47% turnout. That's not out of the realm of possibility, but it's exceptionally high for an election like this, and considerably higher than the statewide turnout of 33%.

10. It Seems Unlikely Every Adult Was Registered, Sir |
|
As of June, 2009, there were fewer than seven thousand registered voters in Brookfield. It hard to believe this figure quadrupled and more in the last two years.

11. As I recall, late, late, late on election night if not early on the day after |
|
the election, all precincts were shown to have reported.
What was the total for Waukesha County at that time? Was the percentage of reported voters 33% of considerably less at that time?
Kloppenburg needs to hire lawyers (if she has not already), get the evidence put under seal and depose the County officer in charge of counting the votes as soon as possible.
This looks very fishy.
