Wi also recalled 4 GOP state Senators--we need only to win1 to win chamber

[WI_DEM]

Petitions were also filed to recall four Republican state senators: Terry Moulton in northwest Wisconsin, Pam Galloway in north-central Wisconsin, Van Wangaard in southeast Wisconsin and Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald, Walker's legislative point man in the struggle last year over the governor's move last year to strip collective bargaining rights from state, county and municipal employees and teachers. If just one of the four senators is recalled and removed, control of the chamber will shift from the Republicans to the Democrats—who picked up two seats in recall elections last summer.

and the GOP Lt. Governor will face a recall election:

In addition to the 1 million signatures seeking Walker's recall, petitions with 845,000 signatures were submitted to force the recall of Republican Lieutenant Governor Rebecca Kleefisch.

6. Redistricting is being contested in federal court

At this stage the Republican consultants are supposed to be providing depositions on how they carried out the drawing of the maps. (It has been said they submitted them to the national GOP before making them public. Probably many other facts will come out.) Then the court will decide what to do.
