WI Recall
Is this the point at which the side that looses claims the other side cheated?

Looks like the independent voters made the difference.

I have no idea what you are writing about.
Over here, the Women's Institute are well respected for their tea, cakes and preserves.

Nice to see him happy about something, though, isn't it?

My Mum is Oz-side right now.
She could do all of the above. And clean toilets to the extent you could eat stew out of them. Well, bleach stew...

Having seen the Daily Show this week, I now have some idea of what's been going on in Wisconsin. Interesting political shennanigans.
Basically, under the recall rules the elected guy can be made to refight the election if enough people want a recall. By enough, they mean a fairly small percentage of those who elected him in the first place. So, having lost the election, in an apparent fit of pique, the democrats decided to force a recall about a year after the original election. Thus imposing on Wisconsin the disruption and expense of a second election, in order to return ...the same result as the first. [eta] Just checked as was a bit vague on the details, but these were the Governor elections (gubernatorial?)

I want to know is if Yon Yonson voted. That's the only vote that matters.
Wisconsin: another state you couldn't pay me to live in, along with FL and GA. I can barely stand living in OH. |

Hye, I thought it was nice and clear coverage. As a furriner, I need someone to explain it in terms I understand. And satirists give that best :P

To play my partisan part, I have to point out that "fit of pique" here means "weeks of massive protest in the capitol and other major cities across the state following a massive union-busting effort". The pro-union groups protesting in/around the state house were huge news for a while.
