As I type, Waukesha County is working on the process of certifying its results after finishing the physical recount about 2 pm yesterday. With unofficial numbers from all of Waukesha County except the city of Muskego, most of the city of Waukesha, and most of the village of Summit (the last was reported to the Government Accountability Board but was still under review as of this morning) available from the GAB as of this morning, and certified numbers from the other 71 counties, 3,545 of Wisconsin’s 3,602 reporting units have been reported and at minimum reviewed by the Government Accountability Board, representing 1,477,284 of an original 1,498,880 votes. On a net basis, Justice David Prosser gained 368 votes over his pre-recount total in those 3,545 reporting units, challenger JoAnne Kloppenburg gained a net 678 votes over the pre-recount total, and an additional 162 “scattering” were recorded over the pre-recount total. That means Prosser lost 310 votes of his pre-recount 7,316-vote lead, and has an unofficial 7,006-vote lead.

I hope all the "bitter union types" join with all the Democrats and Independants and turn Wisconsin back into the "Progressive" state it once was.
If Democrats win Wisconsin back will all you bitter Conservative types go to Uganda where your ideology is more widely accepted.

Grim Creeper- Isn't the whole problem that there are no official numbers from Waukesha? Only unofficial, and those don't even include all the cities in the county? If the Waukesha registrar hadn't messed up so badly the first time, there probably wouldn't have been a recount, and here she is unable to get things done in a timely and official manner yet again. Does that NOT bother you?

By the way, that is one scary picture of Ms. Kloppenburg. Which reminds me, I should watch the Wizard of Oz again.

Why aren't democrats able to be civil, live what they preach or understand that they lost?

They are civil and understanding (conservatives) but refuse to crush individual rights under their heel like liberals and democrats. An example like unions, unions are outdated and only serve themselves, I know, my union did the same thing and we are not participating anymore so it is striking out against us, those that supported it for years after it became useless. When decency was at stake, they were great years ago, and now, well, they only create problems not solutions much like liberals (well intentioned but force everyone else to pay for it) and serve no good purpose.
