Walker Survives Recall Election

Governor Walker, of Wisconsin, survived his recall election by only a few points. This despite massively out spending his challenger.

The victory with fifty-three percent of the vote versus forty-six percent, is being hailed as huge victory against labor unions.

Lieutenant governor Rebecca Kleefisch and state senate majority leader Scott Fitzgerald also both survived their recalls.

As of early Wednesday, the other seat up for grabs in the state senate was being won by less than 800 votes, by the challenging Democrat.


Some controversy arose when Madison reported that 119% of registered voters, had voted in the recall.


State laws do allow for same day registrations, and Democrats are claiming that is how such a high turnout is possible.

Republicans are largely ignoring the matter, due to winning anyways.
