Scott Walker recall goes live

[rbt48]

Well, FWIW (probably not much), I support Walker, too.  He tried to rein in the power of public unions and act in the interests of taxpayers. 

Further, I think recalls for differences in policies are inappropriate and laws should be changed to cease them from being an option to remove an elected official.

Looks like the total party vote in the WI governor primaries (as of now) is about 619,000 R, 608,000 D.  I wonder how indicative of the final recall vote this will be?

Unless the remainder of Dane tilts very heavily against him, it looks like one could nearly call the State Senate race (dist #13) for Fitzgerald (R).

Looks like Kenosha County is the only one that flipped to Barrett.  Walker took 51% in 2010, Barret took 51% this time.  Barrett took 13 counties in 2010, but seems to have taken 9 this year.
