Any objective, impartial observer or election official in the state of Wisconsin would have to take account of the enitre voting pattern throughout the state. I have carefully done that, and.....I can tell you the Racine are voting wetn against the pattern of voting in the entire state of Wisconsin. A recount is fully in order. Someone, I don’t know who, on the Democrat side was cooking the books, big time!!!

In one of the 36 precincts, a woman was caught voting for the third time. All three votes were counted...

The Wisonsin State Senate will not even be in session again until after the November elections. What happens before then is essentially meaningless.

Racine has the typical demographics of a dem city. 40% minorities, shrinking population and job base.

Residents aren't getting the government they want or deserve. They are getting the government that the dems will cheat to create. How can they live such a lie?

This is less about reversing the outcome than about keeping the focus on election fraud and the need to pass a Voter ID law in WI.

This will be a good dry run to teach the Republicans what kind of behavior to look for from the unions in November. Hell, the state has a surplus of funds..........

“Unfortunately, the last political act of Van Wanggaard is going to cost Racine taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars,” Lehman said.

Can you believe that statement? Let this sink in. The democRATS were the ones who started the whole recall process to begin with, costing the tax payers $16 million. Now that the Republican wants to do a recount (for less than $10 thousand), all of a sudden the RATS are complaining about the cost to tax payers.

Liberals really are insane.

So what is involved in the recount? Are the names challenged against records? Or is it purely just a counting of the ballots?

I have a Q for you or someone from Wisconsin that can answer it...As I understand this “recount” it is only a “recount” and not a verification of eligibility to vote? No auditing of address/names, etc. Just recounting of ballots, some of which may be fraudulent. If so, not much point.

Link please? (I’ll try Google, but if you’re going to state something like this, you really should cite the source as well.)

yes. this is exactly the way to fight evil. note the technique of all liars. to take the most damning piece of evidence against them and use it to support their evil. this is the “big lie.”

the most damning evidence against the dem is that walker won the district. why would individuals split their recall vote? that is a smoking gun.

no. no slacking off. no excuses. count every legitimate vote. discount every fraud. evil must be faced. wanggard has my support and gratitude. he is one rare republican. looks like he may be a patriot.

You’re right...not much point.

All the recount will accomplish is adding up all the votes again, and overturning an 800 plus margin will be difficult. I don’t think examination of the registration process, or of multiple votes cast by an individual, will even be be part of the recount process.

And even if it were, it would be impossible to figure out which votes to toss out, once they’ve been illegally cast. This is why we desperately need the voter ID law (and why Democrats so strenuously oppose it.) Once the vote is cast, it’s counted, regardless whether the voter cast it illegally.

It will be interesting to find out what the undervote (ballots with a vote against Van Wanggaard but no vote in the Governor recall portion of the ballot) is in Van Wanggaard’s district vs other non Senatorial recall districts? Of course, there may be no way to find out without recounting the other districts.

“What happens before then is essentially meaningless.”

Wagganard wins in recount, Walker calls a special session and they take down the unions completely.

That’s what could happen. It’s only meaningless if the RAT wins.

Same day voter registration needs to be tossed as well.

Van Wanggaard is a former police investigator. Perhaps he has a nose for illegal conduct and feels there may be some involved here. But if votes are merely recounted and not authenticated in terms of name, address, eligibility,etc. then it is merely and exercise in futility...
