MADISON, Wis. (WTAQ) - State election officials say they have verified last Tuesday’s Supreme Court results from Brookfield.

That’s where 14,000 votes were not disclosed on Election Night, giving court challenger JoAnne Kloppenburg only a 204-vote statewide lead. But once a canvass added Brookfield’s numbers, incumbent Justice David Prosser jumped out to about a 7,500 vote lead.

Kloppenburg is waiting for the other county canvasses to be finished Thursday or Friday before deciding on a possible statewide recount.

Waukesha County Clerk Kathy Nickolaus – who failed to include Brookfield’s totals on Election Night – rejected calls Tuesday to resign. County Democrats said she has ignored pleas to be more open about reporting election results.

There must be some kind of bug in DU's software, as the link will not post correctly Try this:


If you add a hyphen between the word clerk and the last backslash in the URL it will bring up the correct page.

[Kingofalldems]

10. Some people seem to rejoice in any bad news about Democrats

[GillesDeleuze]

11. you are the one not making sense. nt

[Freddie Stubbs]

12. Nickolaus is not a Democrat, she is a Republican

Perhaps you need to do some more reading on this story rather than criticizing DUers for posting about it.

[Kingofalldems]

13. The story is the election was certified-- a loss for Democrats

Another straw man answer.

[GillesDeleuze]

14. WTF

the story is about how a republican is acting in total defiance of state elections agencies.

what fuckin state are you from?

if not wi, stfu.

[Freddie Stubbs]

16. I'm not sure what article you read, but the election has not been certified

There is still a chance of a recount.

Perhaps you are just projecting, I don't know.

:shrug:

[Freddie Stubbs]

17. Have you been able to find the part of the article which stated the election has been certified yet?

[Freddie Stubbs]

18. Why would someone want Democrats to believe that the election was certified when it wasn't?

:shrug:

[Roland99]

15. So, you're ok with Repukes stealing elections...again?

8. Interesting...

"Normally, she only discloses the countywide vote on Election Night, and not the totals for each community as clerks in other counties normally give out."

19. Well, we were here the night of this fiasco.

Still think everything is on the level? They verified the votes...it all looks legitimate.

It stinks to high hell.
