14. Yes, absentee ballots

are counted on election day in Wisconsin.

Here is a description: "Absentee ballots are processed on Election Day by the same election officials who process ballots cast in person.

The municipal clerk, on Election Day, has couriers deliver the absentee ballots to the appropriate polling site. At some point on Election Day, officials follow a specific procedure to count the absentee ballots. In Milwaukee, absentee ballot will be processed in a central location for the entire city.

If the ballot is completed properly, the enveloped is opened, the voter is checked off the registration list as having voted absentee and the ballot is run through the machine – the same as the ballot cast by a voter who is present in the polling place. Wis. Stat. 6.88(3)(a)."

15. Wisconsin does not use touchscreens

except possibly for disability, but even then many print ballots to be scanned like regular ballots.

I don't buy it. They still have to post the #s from those 2 Milwaukee precincts.

18. Lake Mills vote for governor in 2010

Walker 551
Barrett 431

However, Lake Mills did seem to have a higher percentage of votes for Barrett than other towns in Jefferson County. And a lot has happened since November.
