[quote]As if the situation in Wisconsin wasn't tense enough, it appears that one county in particular is going to a new extreme. This comes after word that there may have been voter fraud in the nonpartisan State Supreme Court election yesterday between incumbent David Prosser and JoAnne Kloppenburg.
For some reason one of the counties in the state is destroying ballots that 'were not counted' yesterday. Apparently this is a very bizarre and egregious move.
There is now a call for an injunction to preserve the 'discarded' ballots:
I have filed a Wisconsin Open records request with the City of Mequon demanding any ballot
submitted but not cast in yesterday's election, including any remnant of a shredded ballot. We
have received reports Mequon poll workers destroyed submitted ballots before poll closing time, demanding a driver’s license number from the absentee voter. This request is unusual and the destruction of ballots is of grave concern, given the closeness of the state Supreme Court election. I will consider seeking an injuction to back up my request if Mequon officials are not copperative [sic].

We're not exactly sure why this is happening, but Mequon is in Ozaukee County... where the vote totals may give us an idea why:
Ozaukee 48/48
Prosser 20,844 72%
Kloppenburg 8,295 28%
This could be the 200 votes that Kloppenburg is currently "leading" by... What the hell is going on?[/quote]

Exactly, and how anyone was able to be able to destroy and use ballots is going beyond on how many of us would think to be.
[QUOTE=Bletotum;29025619]discard all votes

That would be awesome, because I forgot to vote yesterday.
Anyway, the people in this state can be idiots.
There better be an arrest made.

Oh god what
Also, why haven't the citizens of Wisconsin revolted yet? They must have saintly patience to be able to put up with all of this shit.

Probably because the vast majority of them don't care, and there are systems in place to resolve these situations without a revolution.
dunno if I can trust a blog that has a motto that is " All conservatism, no apologies"

Fuck that, start a revolution anyways. Honestly.
Fucking ridiculous. This kind of stuff is not acceptable.
[QUOTE=TwinkieHouse;29026415]Oh god what

Because the Republican governor, and senate majority, were voted in by a majority of the registered voters.
