13. I do not understand your question maybe. This is the Republican primary except

for Hansen. No primary there cause the other repug failed to collect enough sigs.

[Tx4obama]

16. Never mind. I found the answer.

Republican primaries in two state Senate districts "now held by Democrats", ...

[iwishiwas]

warming here.

8:54 PM: Hansen delivering victory speech.

Hansen has taken the podium and is delivering his victory speech.

He thanked supporters for their help, telling them the path to taking the Senate "begins tonight in northeastern Wisconsin."

[iwishiwas]

24. Nancy Nusbaum, who's taking on Sen. Rob Cowles in a recall Aug. 9, is at the party,

I only hope she can have the same type victory party.

8:53 PM: Hansen supporters energized

The Hansen party is in full swing now, with a couple hundred packing the Riverside Ballroom in Green Bay.

The crowd cheered as early numbers from Brown County showing Hansen up 68 percent to 30 percent.

There's good energy in the crowd as people are chatting over complimentary beer and soda, while some are munching on chicken wings, cocktail wieners in barbeque sauce, cheese, sausage and crackers and fresh fruit and vegetables.

Nancy Nusbaum, who's taking on Sen. Rob Cowles in a recall Aug. 9, is at the party, chatting with friends and supporters. She and Hansen share a campaign office, and she says she impressed by the dedication of the volunteers, who were out knocking on doors in sweltering heat.

19. AP HAS PROJECTED DEM. HANSEN THE WINNER.. this was the real

dealt for Hansen as the Repugs had put in a recall for him. One down and 5 to go. we need a net pick up of 3 to take the senate and at least put the breaks on Walker and his repug poodles.
