PPP working hard to make it look like the race is tightening to encourage turnout.

Actually the unions would want to discourage turnout, not encourage it. They have a better chance with a light turnout because their members and cronies are more likely to show up and vote.

Correct. The unions will not only give their employees time off from work to vote, they will give many of them the entire day so they can hold signs outside the polling places and intimidate people who are walking in.

I'm concerned about reports of people being bused in from out of state to vote - is this possible? Maybe some locals can shed some light on the situation.

A heavy turnout is what we need. If this time tomorrow, we are hearing about long lines, we can breathe a little easier.

It might be asking too much but I want to see a double-digit blowout here. If Walker only wins by a few points, I will be disappointed.
