Wisconsin Recall Elections--Early Returns.....

[BlueDemKev]

...not looking good so far. Even in Fond du Lac, (District 18) where the turnout was reported at over 70%, we are behind 54-46%. District 14 has us behind 59-41%. The only race we're ahead in is District 32 where we expected to win easily, we're only ahead 52-48%.

1. Yes but small % precincts reporting.

2. Repub areas reporting first? Would make sense as they are rural and probably less turnout.

I am thinking its gonna be a long night. And then tomorrow after we "win" they will find thousands of ballots in the trunk of somebody's car.

5. I Thought Rural Areas Usually Reported Last

9. They typically report first due to the small number of ballots to tally.

Larger population centers report later. Let's hope for the best.

7. These Senate districts are ALL RURAL

All of these senate districts are pretty much rural areas. There is no waiting for "the heavily-populated urban precincts to come in" this time.

3. Not looking as good as I hoped, but the night is still young.

They're going to steal it. Just watch.

exit polls?

night.
