MADISON, Wis (Reuters) - Officials in Wisconsin's largest county said on Thursday they would meet the deadline for finishing their review of the local vote in last week's state Supreme Court race, an election widely seen as a referendum on Republican efforts to curb public sector unions.

The end of the county reviews would set the stage for either candidate in the closely watched contest to demand a recount

If Democrats ale allowed, they will keep recounting until they do. Watch the Democrats steal this one right under the Republicans' noses.

Elections have become a farce.

The Milwaukee County Sheriff took over watching the ballots

Hope he's not a union guy.

There has not been a request for a recount but Milwaukee County has already prepared for one, including renting the space, before they have even reported their vote count.

It will be a referendum on the GOP only if the conservative loses. Otherwise it will just be another stolen election.

The Dems cried “foul” when the county reporting the 7,500 votes last week were turned in only two days after the election. Yet, Milwaukee County hasn’t reported over a week after the election.

I’m from the State of Washington. King County, where Seattle is located, always does this in order to manufacture Democratic votes.

You might be interested to know then that 10,000 Kloppenburg votes were just discovered in a King County warehouse. Amazing, really.

“A 200+ vote margin is enough for the Dem to give her victory speech but a 7,000+ vote margin is grounds for a recount??? “

Yep—here come those trunkloads of ballots in the back of cars that were missing from the dems

No major discrepancies so far...Per FOX 6 Milwaukee... any changes look to be in SINGLE DIGITS... far less than any mystical finding of 7000 votes in a Prius back seat.

I’m not too sure about that, the sheriff’s department in the county stepped in and said, we’re protecting the ballots. Those ballets have been protected since day one. Hopefully, we’ve got our act together and can beat the libs on this issue. They are throwing the kitchen sink at this state, and we keep winning.

We’ll see, the mo of the libs is to drag everything out. Eventually, they’ll lose, but it’s as annoying as hell what’s been going on here.

Good news, there’s a Tea Party in Madison on Saturday, Sarah Palin is coming. It should be a great event!

David Clarke, the county sheriff, runs as a dem. He’s black. But he’s as conservative as many of us. He has to have the “D” after his name for the idiots who vote. He’s been an up front and law and order guy. Party doesn’t matter to him, doing the right thing is his mission.

He’s a treasure.

” DON’T LET THE DEMS STEAL THIS ONE WISCONSIN!”

I believe they already have. The delays are just so they can print up the necessary ballots to win.
