If I knowingly spend another dime in Brookfield, WI,
then I am a total hypocrite. I think it is time to show our wealthy neighbors that we can live without their products, their stores, their money. Who will join me in boycotting Brookfield, WI businesses?

1. Well, I don't shop there anyway, but I don't think the problem is Brookfield...
I think the problem is the Waukesha Co Clerk.

This in one of America's most Republican Counties. Doesn't give me any confidence that they got that moniker fairly.

4. Absolutely!
Can a Texan with experience in election administration ask a few questions? Doesn't each precinct within a county carry a unique precinct number? If the County Clerk is telling the truth and failed to report vote totals from all the precincts within a particular city, wouldn't the state election administrators show x number of precincts unreported? For the state to announce that 100% of the precincts are reporting, there would HAVE to have been numbers other than 0 reported to the state administrator for those precincts. Something is rotten here.

5. That is a great question.
How do we get 100% reporting, and then find we didn't get 100% reporting?

Just one more way this stinks to high heaven.

6. But Waukesha County (and Brookfield) elected the woman as clerk
If this is the way they do business in Waukesha county, the boycott should cover the whole county.

2. If you spend a dime in Brookfield it will be accounted for
on that lady's personal computer and nowhere else.

10. fed up
As a long-time resident/native of a blue county in West Central Wisconsin and the spouse of a teacher and the son of a Teamster and a brother of a member of AFSCME and a brother of a medalist in the Special Olympics can someone convince me that I shouldn't think of the Fox River Valley/Suburban Milwaukee as freaking Alabama or Mississippi?!!!...frankly, I despise that part of the state and hereby disown those bastards. I'm sick of their right wing shit every damn election.

11. I worked in the Milwaukee area for over twenty years.
Those folks that listen to the conservanazi bu$hit are just a racist as any KKKLucker I've met down South. When you call them one, they get pissed and try to tell you about all their black friends whose names they can't remember.
