Congresswoman Tammy Baldwin, who represents the Madison, Wisconsin, area may have read the BuzzFlash at Truthout commentary, "Impound the Private Computer of the Katherine Harris of Wisconsin and Bring in the Feds."

That is because Baldwin wrote to Attorney General Holder to launch a federal investigation into the election counting of the vote for Wisconsin Supreme Court justice, and curious two-day late emergence of approximately 7500 votes for Scott Walker's candidate, David Prosser.

Utilizing social media, Baldwin tweeted, "To assure public confidence in our election process, I have asked AG Holder to investigate the handling of vote records in Waukesha County."

Baldwin posted her letter to Holder on Facebook, in which she writes:

I share the concern of my constituents that these reports raise serious doubts as to the integrity of the electoral process in Waukesha County and, by extension, our entire state.
