Waukesha County Clerk Kathy Nickolaus, the one who counts the all the votes herself. Look at this -

Remember, they only show donations over $250USD, so who knows how much she has donated her lifetime. I wonder if she has a preferred party?

1. She is a republican and Prosser used to be her boss.

Kathy Nickolaus worked for Assembly Republican Caucus when Prosser was Speaker. Caucus is controlled by speaker, so he is her former boss.

3. She does NOT count the votes, she releases the totals the counties transmit to her office. n/t

[LynneSin]

5. sure, using her antiquated personal computer that no one else has access

Something stinks big time

9. My Democratic County Vice chair confirmed the 14k weren't in county totals sent to media.

If Nickolaus did something improper, we likely can catch her with technology and proper accounting. (Not to mention that Kloppenburg has the best lawyer on the planet.)

I have been called a troll here because I trust Ramona and my rep. A whole city was (mistakenly? remains to be seen) omitted from county totals. And I seriously don't want to entertain disenfranchising a whole city because a clerk fucked up and I don't like their votes.

As was stated elsewhere on DU: If this asshole wanted to throw the election to Prosser, this is about the stupidest way she could have done it. Anyone with access to city vote totals and a calculator would discover it in 5 minutes once the error was announced.

10. Is she the only one that can verify the totals? Can they be independently verified?

Not from her computer? Especially after her story about Access 'not saving' her entries, when Access has autosave?

4. That doesn't surprise me. ...it's her church.

7. Interesting last name considering her position and what has happened in her...

office.

Nickolaus= St.Nickolaus=Santa Claus.

Xmas came early for Repugnants.

8. Of course she's a Republican. That's no secret here in Waukesha.
