Recount shows Prosser still the winner by more than 7,000 votes
<snip>
With the weeks-long recount complete, unofficial numbers confirm that state Supreme Court Justice David Prosser narrowly defeated Assistant Attorney General JoAnne Kloppenburg in the April 5 election.

But the battle may not be over yet, as Kloppenburg mulls whether to challenge the results in court.

And if a legal contest goes on long enough, attorneys say it could delay efforts to swear Prosser in for a new term on Aug. 1, leading to a temporary vacancy on the closely divided high court.

Final recount numbers are expected to show Prosser with an advantage of slightly more than 7,000 votes over Kloppenburg.

1. Well, that's not much of a surprise.
The question is what will happen with all the irregularities, esp. open ballot bags.
