"As Prosser Wins, the Dems Get the Blame for Wisconsin"
We don't need any more examples that our election systems can't be trusted in close elections.
Unfortunately, our main political parties don't seem very anxious to do what is necessary to fix that problem...

Michael Thielen reports on how it is in Wisconsin at PajamasMedia.com:
"Now that Wisconsin’s recent judicial election has at long last been settled in Prosser’s favor, there is no doubt who is really to blame for the problems that resulted in erroneous reporting which gave a narrow lead for the defeated liberal candidate. In the only truly non-partisan, non-ideological study of its kind, a special task force of the Milwaukee Police Department concluded that massive fraud and incompetence existed in Wisconsin’s election system. Republicans were eager to reform the system, but most Democrats refused to even discuss it. Despite the Democrats’ failure to act, no Democrat or liberal ever refuted the substance of the study, nor did they make any effort even to address the incompetence issue.
Why would the Democrats want to allow the incompetence in the system to stand? A cynic would say it would allow fraud to continue. In the police study, the police task force found that 16 staffers for the Democrat presidential campaign and a liberal allied group committed felony vote fraud and engaged in an 'illegal organized attempt to influence the outcome of an election in the state of Wisconsin.'
Yet not one was prosecuted."
