I suspect that Abrahamson feels she is above the law and sees no reason to recuse herself. In fact, she will likely go out of her way to validate whatever the chardonnay and brie crown in Dane County desires.

Or Abrahamson should recuse herself based on the fact that Prosser is a current fellow employee ?????

THAT would be sufficient grounds to recuse, IMO, and enough to take it to SCOTUS, also, if she doesn’t.

If this got to the Wi Supreme Court, would Abrahamson need to recuse herself due to past association with Klopper?

Mr D – on the recalls – my rough guess

6 R’s and 3 D’s are going to be ‘up’. The D’s need to gain 3 to take the Senate. IOW, hold all 3 D seats and take over 3 out of 6 R seats. If they lose one D seat, they need to gain 4 out of 6 R seats, etc.

Seems unlikely to actually change anything.

Wouldn’t it be a gen-u-wine pisser if they end up netting a LOST seat ??? :-)

I’m sure Kloppy will try to find a pretext to challenge the results, but there’s no way she’ll ever get to sit on the court. She lost and if a court in Dane County tries to overturn the election, it will hurt everyone involved in the effort much more than it will hurt the Republicans.

By the way, what is the feeling on the recall elections? Is there any real momentum for Dem candidates, or are people simply getting sick of the whole process?

Stephen, you are correct, that is what is going to happen. The communist party will win at any cost. She will steal the election by using the court system which the communist have control of. Hugo Chavez and Obama have and will do the same.

Rob – maybe you could practice spelling his name right before posting about him ?

Otherwise, you might look like a complete fucking asshole.

And we wouldn’t want THAT to happen, now, would we ?

Any way to know yet how many objections are on record, by which campaign ( especially in Waukesha ), and the nature of them ( whole bag or 1 ballot etc ) ?

There is no decision to make; in her mind, she won and all that remains is for the courts to confirm this so that she can take office in August. Prediction: recount done by May 20. She announces on May 21 that, due to “significant anomalies” she will challenge the certification in Dane County court. Barring that, or presuming she loses such a challenge (not likely – it is Dane County), she will plead her case before Abrahamson who will decide her case has merit and therefore appoint another Dane County lawgiver (to quote this site). This person will, just in time for the new term, decide that all votes from Waukesha county need to be thrown out in order to preserve the sanctity of the electoral process. The Astonished Cod will be seated in August.
