Update regarding large number of Supreme Court ONLY votes in Waukesha
Edited on Fri Apr-08-11 12:02 PM by jsamuel
125,000+ votes were cast for Supreme Court in Waukesha County. The next most voted for race had a total of about 106,800 votes. That leaves just over 18,000 votes for only the Supreme Court race.

Waukesha
18,000/125,000 = 14.4%


A Republican was complaining about fraud in Dane County on election night because there were some 10,000 ballots cast for only the Supreme Court race. However, there were a total of 182,000 votes cast in Dane County.

Dane
10,000/182,000 = 5.5%

Marathon
2,700/32,000 = 8.5%

Outagamie
1,500/43,500 = 3.4%

Racine
4,000/51,000 = 7.8%

Sheboygan
800/30,900 = 2.6%

Winnebago (closest to Waukesha)
4,700/39,500 = 11.9%

No Competitive Race to Compare:
Crawford, Jackson, Jefferson, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Rock, Washington

1. Every single facet of this debacle makes the GOP look more GUILTY
Wisconsin started the nation on fire for unions -- maybe it can get the nation on fire for election integrity so we don't have to live under the Koch regime against our will.

2. Waukesha also had a circuit court race in which they were trying to unseat a democrat.
I think it highly unlikely that a rapublican district would have so many ignore that race.

5. So if you remove the 14,000 that suddenly appeared due to human "error"
the totals would be pretty close to normal. Interesting.

Regardless of how this turns out, there are too many red flags to ignore this.

7. This is a trial run for the recounts.
They are not leaving anything to chance - or to the will of the people.

9. That doesn't interest me nearly so much as this tweet:
"Brookfield wards 7-10: 2,164 total votes (incl 186 absentee). Man reports #1,349 at 7:15 pm, means 629 people voted after him."

Granted, anyone who was standing on line at 8pm would have been allowed to vote, but it seems odd that 30% of the votes were cast that late on election day.
