Good luck to you all! Let be a Democratic sweep all across the state!

Even if Walker wins, he's still doomed due to the federal investigation.

Is that one woman still in charge of elections up there? The one who magically pulled votes out of her ass, er, laptop during the SC election last year? If so, it may spell doom for Barrett.
on edit- I think her name is Nicholas or something like that.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/125142744

When Wisconsin Activists demanded a hand recount last time, the ballot bags were under the watchful eye of Kathy Nickolaus, and came back torn, overstuffed and with the wrong numbers on the bags.

This was considered 'slop' not fraud and they counted them anyway.

If it were fraud, how the hell are we going to know then if overstuffed, torn bags with the wrong number from the election judges on them come back in the same condition again?

Thanks everyone for supporting our efforts in WI to rid our beautiful state of the trash that has accumulated in our Capital. The choice has been set for Wisconsinites. Will we continue to be a progressive and forward thinking state or will we allow billionaires to choose our governments. The choice is in our hands.

rethug being interviewed. His Wife is for the recall as he is for standing with Walker. If Walker maintains his corruption in Wisconsin...THEN WISCONSIN GETS EVERYTHING THEY ASK FOR. How in the world rather you are a republican or democrat can anyone in their right mind vote against themselves by allowing a political gangster like Walker to remain in office?? THIS REALLY BOGGLES THE MIND LOVELY ATLANTA

Wisconsin, we're with you and EVERY DEMOCRAT, INDEPENDENT, or GREEN PARTY voter MUST come out and vote for DEMOCRACY and vote for Barrett.

The ENTIRE U.S. is watching this election, to see if Democracy can be bought, by the 1%. If these billionaires win this election, then FREE ELECTIONS in the United States will be a thing of the past.

American politicians are an ENDANGERED species, if Scott Walker wins today.

Too bad the indictment of Walker didn't go down BEFORE the recall.

Vote Barrett today!

spoke to someone who actually received one of those evil "if you signed the petition, you don't have to vote" phone calls.

She was a lovely person (a teacher), and was very upset to receive that kind of call. I suggested she call the FEC (for whatever it's worth).

It's criminal that people don't go to jail for stunts like this. What a perverse, direct attack on our democracy.
