1. As long as they don't cheat

Edited on Tue Aug-09-11 08:26 AM by Pharaoh

(they already have sending out false ballots) we will win this,

If the democrats show up, I have a feeling many repubs are less enthusiastic about showing up today. One can only hope.......

PS: thanks for your support and donations! This thing is important to the whole nation and much of the rest of the world.

2. It's up to us now. Republicans do cheat, but they are not omnipotent.

They cannot steal elections at will. Our turnout today can overwhelm anything they have tried to do. Democrats, independents, and even Republicans who agree with us need to turn out and vote.

Six recall elections that will be closely watched with eyes and observers right there at the polling places with lawyers at the ready. It will be hard to pull off funny business under such close scrutiny.

3. "Strong turnout, no problems so far at polls" - Journal-Sentinel (10:38 a.m. CDT)

Madison - Strong turnout and no major problems were reported Tuesday morning by elections officials.

"So far I'm not aware of any problems out there," said Reid Magney, a spokesman for the state Government Accountability Board. - Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel

Another report from an hour earlier reports big turnout in Whitefish Bay, hometown of Democratic Rep. Sandy Pasch -- running against Sen. Alberta Darling (R-River Hills).

Comment on the page for that second story by one winstonsmith:

Here is what you are voting for today:
A huge share of the nation's economic growth over the past 30 years has gone to the top one-hundredth of one percent, who now make an average of $27 million per household.

The average income for the bottom 90 percent of us? $31,244.

On Wisconsin!
