(10,864 posts)I recall I spent a lot on Barrett (2012?) and that went down the drain. Like all my contributions in recent years. Am hoping for a win finally.

(2,795 posts)Isn't everything in that state turning to shit and they continue to vote for him? No jobs, loss of revenue, education in the toilet. And there they are, voting for that chinless Koch lapdog.

(10,864 posts)maybe this time, at last.
And I'm from Minnesota, but for some reason (well I can name a few), I have a special "thing" about Walker.
We're having a great night in Minnesota, BTW. Gov, AG (Keith Ellison), Auditor and Sec of State and all that, flipped the MN House, might even pick up another US House seat. And both U.S. senators

(9,435 posts)Depending on where those votes in La Crosse & Portage County, 600 votes could be made up in those places alone. (both have State Universities). And there is the 45,000 City of Milwaukee absentee ballots, which I would think would break heavily for Evers.
It looks like the remaining Brown Co votes trended Dem, which offset the remaining precincts in Sheboygan & Manitowoc.
I don't see any large pool of Walker votes left unless Waukesha County has another spreadsheet error.

(3,619 posts)Just saw on Twitter from Mary Spicuzza (Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reporter):
About 38,000 of those @cityofmilwaukee absentee ballots went to @Tony4WI, while just about 7,181 went to @ScottWalker. That should mean a win for Evers.

ADDED That could put Josh Kaul over the top for the AG race as well.

(9,435 posts)Evers now has a 1000 vote lead (12:58 AM CST). It looks like that may be due to some votes that came in from La Crosse and Portage counties.
Walker may potentially still have a couple thousand votes left scattered across Oconto, Marinette, and a few other sparsely populated northern Wisconsin counties.
