Supporting Tom Barrett from CA - I was in OH and helped with the SB 5 Campaign - It can be done!

Standing in solidarity with you Wisconsin - from Chillicothe, Ohio. We are ALL Wisconsin today and know you will recall Walker! POWER TO THE PEOPLE!!

Washington is standing with the Unions!!! Get those votes out.

Good to see that most of the crazy libs are from somewhere else. Hopefully they have enough decency not to try and steal our election. We don't need the problems that other liberal states have; bankruptcy, unemployment, poor test scores, high % of foreclosures etc.

From Illinois. GO BARRETT!!!!!

We are Wisconsin in Colorado and watching closely.

As a Californian who once worked for the State as a firefighter working for less than 50 cents an hour at 120 hours a week with 2 days off and no benefits compared to private industry, it took 40 years of hard struggle to fight for decent benefits that realized human dignity. What Walker did therefore was an act of war against the common decency & human rights of all people who work hard for a living to raise a family & survive.

Walker represents clearly a social Darwinist approach to organize human affairs with no regard for human dignity. How any Wisconsin person could ever vote against their own self-interest by allowing him to remain in office would be a greater tragedy and used as fuel to boilerplate a national Republican effort to dismantle the "Social Contract" and the proper role of public services.

Unseat the corpo-clones, wherever they may be found.

Supporting Barrett all the way. I wish SC had recalls!!!!!

Go Democrats!

And as a Wisconsinite I can say how glad I am to have you all fight your special interest battles in my state. Kinda like being a Belgian in WWII

So, I see that we have a bunch of out-of-state agitators on the board tonight!

Does that mean we'll have to endure even more whining than is normal around here when WALKER spanks Barrett even harder than he did in 2010?

VOTE WISCONSIN VOTE!!!! Now is your time to shine, November will be everyone's!!!

This is about the little guy. You know, the ones that make everything work.

hey if walker loses you can move to arizona

Kinda funny how all the liberals are from other states... And walker has all the out of state help? I can't wait till all this recall crap is over

Let's HOPE Wisconsin voters think with their paycheck and send Walker packing for his union busting tactics. More POWER to the middle class!!

Arkansas is behind Barrett and it's time to take back the state of Wisconsin! Go to it and make it happen - the whole world is watching. Time to let the money mongers know they can't buy the 99%! ON WISCONSIN - we're proud of the grassroots effort!

Supporting Tom Barrett from Florida. So proud of the Badger State, no matter the outcome, but I pray the outcome is Walker gets his pink slip tonight.

New Hampshire says GO BADGERS!! Show the nation that Divide and Conquer is not part of the Constitution or the Bill of Rights!!!

Hey WI, send a message to both the Supreme Court and BIG money - your state can NOT be bought!!! Power to the PEOPLE from TN - lived over 35 years in your great state and sure wish I were there to vote today.

How come all these out-of-state DB's hate Walker? Your states are doing so much better aren't they?

Let's hope we vote for our children and the way The Lord Jesus would want us to. If you don't know him then you might be voting blind. He will put those in authority over us depending on his will for us. Depending on our love for him.

I'm from Jupiter. Go Libs. Go Barrett. Go freeloaders!

Remember what John McCain ( VietNam Hero ) said not too long ago.
" My friend my friend, Fight with me,my friend."

This entire fiasco is a horrendous attack, yes attack, on our democracy. This duly elected official did not break any laws or commit any heinous immoral acts that would warrant his recall. Recalls should be reserved and used only in cases like that. To have a recall election solely based upon politics is despicable and tarnishes our democracy. If you don't like the politics of someone,you can "recall" them at the appointed election cycle. What does this lead to if Walker is recalled. I guarantee you that opposition to new Governor will begin immediately and heck might as well start his recall too. This is an atrocity and the state of WI should be ashamed of itself

From El Paso, TX! WE ARE STANDING WITH YOU GOVERNOR WALKER!!!! PRAYING YOU WIN A MAJOR VICTORY TODAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! A DEBT FREE STATE IS THE MODEL WE NEED FOR OUR COUNTRY AND KICK THE DAMN UNION OUT!!!!!!!!!!

We are Wisconsin in CA and watching closely too!

REVOLUTION 2012
It's time for the People to take back OUR Governmnent from Corparat control, unfortanantly we in Florida do not have the Right to Recall Richard Scott CEO of Columbia/HCA. But that will Change!

rock's right. Obama voting present on this too.

The real question is how long will it take the libs to keep finding “lost” sacks of absentee ballots in car trunks and union offices until they have enough to overturn the REAL results?! I wonder what Al Franken thinks about it.

All you out of state lefties are invited to send checks and money orders (no food stamps, please) to:

Wisconsin Department of Revenue
P.O. Box 268
Madison, WI 53790-0001

Put your money where your mouths are.

New Mexico , is With Barrett and hoping Walker takes a walk. A very long walk

I am a proud teacher and thank all putting in time ans effort towards this recall!

Garbage mouth Craig at it again. You shouldn't talk like that when you are on the playground at recess.

Your linguistic creativity gives all a great chuckle, probably even the omnipotent Hoffa.

Is this "Occupy Patch"... Where did all the liberal foreigners come from?

btw - one of the guys driving one of the Dem's black "Get out the Vote" SUVs in the inner city today, is one of Racine County Jails's famous former inmates. Sure hope he had a license - At least he had a job!

Anybody want to add their photo to our "I Voted" sticker post?: http://patch.com/A-tQyq

I hope the people that say they are moving when Walker Wins actually move but we know thats unlikely! Go Walker Go....or we will have to Recall Barrett in 1 year! :)

Schmitzy was just on TV, what an idiot. What small business does he own?

So I came to this blog to hear updates on the results--where are they?? Good luck to Scott Walker!

Schmitzy - you owe me $50!!!

YES - WALKER!!!!!

THE PEOPLE HAVE SPOKEN!!!

BEST DAY EVER!!!!!!!!

Hoffa - You always make us laugh! btw... where is Bren?

nbc just called it for walker!

NBC NEWS has stated WALKER wins

NBC projects winner.

< LISTENING TO THE CRICKETS
You cant run an empty suit against Success and expect to win!

MANDATE

Fox and NBC just called it for Walker and Becky !

Congrats to Walker!!!!!

WOW!! A TROUNCING by Scott Walker!! Can't wait for more of the same as Obama is ousted in November. The people have spoken loud and clear!!

lol... im laughing at chris larson being interviewed.... thinking there still is hope.

Look at all the Patch liberal crybabies. The evil MSM which supports Dems all the times has called the race but people are still in line. BS Patch. A BIG WIN FOR AMERICA AND DEMOCRACY. WAY TO GO WI

Walker KILLING Barrett by 20 points right now!!!

Great victory for the people of Wisconsin as NBC and Fox News call the election. Scott Walker, and all the Republicans prevailing by huge numbers!!!

It's official, the end of public unions is here and Wisconsinites lead the way!!!

YES FOX 6 JUST CALLED IT. WALKER ROCKS!!! NOW WHAT LIBS!!! ITS OBVIOUS WE DONT WANT YOUR IDEOLOGYS. PACK YOUR BAGS AND MOVE

hey world..... occupy this!

Well at least Barrett can go to bed early and get a fresh start in the morning too work on the Trolley project to save Milwaukee.

AP just called it .......WALKER WINS.....Now the World knows!

This is what democracy looks like

Anyone up for a victory drum bang at the capital tonight?

~ in solidarity
a job creator

CHANNEL 12 JUST SHOWED PEOPLE STILL VOTING.......that will pad Walkers final numbers. :)
NOW .....COME ON Van Wanggaard

Geez, talk about a lunatic. Ed Shultz from MSNBC just said Walker could be "indicted" any day now. What a creep

Sanity prevails, thieving Democrats must actually work for a living LOL! Yea Walker!

Let's be gracious winners and let the left be sore losers .

Well that didn't take long. All smiles here. I wonder if there will be any apologies from the people who put us through this. I'm thinking , no.

Now it's time to start working to RECALL Obama.

Great night for us one percenters. Thanks for the support you dumb rubes in Waukesha making $60k a year thinking you are upper class. We're laughing at you know. We're not going to take care of you. Go to the back of the line with the dems. We're done with you now.

We conservatives need to make a trip to the Capital and celebrate

Sour Grapes Chris M?

Peter Barca is trying to spin it on Gretta and she's calling him out on his BS!!!

I LOVE IT!!!!

I can't believe you do not clue in. The unions are no longer for the employees. The bosses get fatter at the expense of the employees and companies. They are no better than the mob demanding 'protection pay' from businesses in communities. These days there are laws in place that protect the workers. Public service workers need to keep in mind that civil service was NEVER meant to be a profitable career. It was, at one point in time, an honor to serve as a public 'servant' or servant of the people. Now - folks think it is a means towards a high salary and benefits OFF THE BACKS of Taxpayers who do not make that much in the first place.
If you do not believe this - stop and think about your FIRST paycheck you received. Let's say you made $5/hour and worked 40 hours. You expected a $200 paycheck and instead wound up with less than $150.00. That is $200 less per month than you calculated for expenses. So, why should you give even more (let's say $90/week in taxes) which is what public employees expect non-public employees to do.

Quick everyone look towards Madison you can see a rainbow from all the evaporated hippies tears

Barrett's campaing manager says only 20% of the votes are in. It's 61%, they can't stop the spin. How sad.

Speaking of sweaty four eyed buffoons, where is Graeme Zielinski?

All Senate recall elections are failing too. The PEOPLE have spoken. I think there is lots of shaking in DC tonight

John Lehman still hasn't shown up at the labor center...

Pretty funny! But the real question is... Will the Fat Lady Sing??? I know it's painful to listen to Gwen Moore, but now she will have to change the words to her "Hit the Road" song...

http://thinkprogress.org/election/2012/06/01/493725/congresswoman-breaks-into-song-hit-the-road-scott-and-dont-you-come-back-no-more/?mobile=nc

NBC has just reported that Costco stores in Wisconsin have all sold out of giant cans of STFU.

Too bad that the drum and plastic horn markets are going to take a severe hit in the state after tonight!

Don't be so sure this is bad news for Obama. Remember, he had the good sense to avoid this dog like the plague. If nothing else, he's got that decision to point to as having been right about something.

Bren?? Hello, Bren? Say, has anyone heard from Bren??

Mandate for Walker .....the entire state is almost in RED

Voters have spoken.

Time to focus on what's important to the voters.

Of course Walker opponents could force another recall election. That would be plain stupid.

I think Ed Schultz is going to lose it and start crying before the end of the night!

I think Bren is trying to find Kleenex for Barrett, Mahlon and Lehman...

And Eddie the liberal Schultz too...

Gotta love Waukesha...even Greta Van Susteren from Fox News is in town (Bret Baier, too). Yipee!!! Gov. Walker and Rebecca Kleefisch have stood strong and deserve the best. What an amazing blow-out!

Ha, ha...Fox News Channel has much better local coverage than the local television stations...speaks volumes.

LOL LOL LOL at the crowd at the Barrett losing speech. Disillusion as expected and can not except the reality of all of this.

3 times in not a charm I guess.

Yay, Wisconsin...the honest voters outnumbered the big-cities' voter fraud. There is "hope" after all! Go back to your home states now, all of you hired union voter workers. The Wisconsin voters spoke and you are now irrelevant.

Barrett's concession speech is better than I could ever have imagined. Even better than 50 big ones from Schmitzy.

HE HE HO HO

This is how a union thug starts a speech after losing for a high level government position.

Keep up the fight brotha'

Mahlon is too stupid to know he lost.

All races called except District 22.

With 22% reporting:

Wanggaard: 62%
Lehman: 38%

Usually, Racine County is pretty efficient, but the last minute push by both sides in the area must have really strained the polls there.

Obama obama obama obama

Well they did have those 4 buses coming in from Michigan. Maybe the union designated those buses for Racine???

Our the Racine results being delivered by Trolley car?

WOW! Barrett takes yet another beat down.
No crowbar needed.
Three time loser.
This is what democracy looks like.
Scott Walker got a mandate from the people- keep moving FORWARD.

Gov. Walker's victory speech is awesome...such a humble man.

The Democratic Party of Wisconsin, 6/8 & 6/9 in Appleton, is scheduled to be the largest funeral since Princess Dianna died. Elton John will not be playing.

Screamin Lena Taylor, next on the Ed Show!

Walker is 100 times the person I am and 10000000 times Obama the divider. What an awesome speech, what a humble man after all the hate speech and lies directed towards his way.

haha WISN just interviews some street drum banger, farad she says, waiting for the government to do their thing and uncover all the republican fraud.....

I agree with you Annie - Governor Walker really gave a great speech! I'm having fun on the blogs tonight, but Governor Walker is right and all of us need to work together. We shall see what tomorrow will bring and we shall see if Bren and the rest of the bunch are willing to hop on board.

Congrats to what looks like a Republican sweep!!

TGFSW!!!!

Will we see Lyle as promised admit that if Walker wins the majority supports his reforms and we should accept them?

Will Bren still be on his/her ALEC/KOCH kick?

And will Keith pay up on the $50 bet with Hoffa?

This and more as the patch comment boards continue on.....

Barrett got slapped in the face by his supporter at his party . Maybe a school teacher from Milwaukee in a teachable moment! I think in that second he might of understood why he lost .His hard core base are loons!

Rumor has it that Barrett got his butt kicked twice tonight...One of his supporters supposedly slapped him in an altercation after his concession speach.

What about a RED "OK" type hand gesture to signify "W" alker? I'm new here. Please be gentle

Glad all the robocalls, ads, mailings, flipped fingers, commercials are over. Now everyone needs to take a deep breath and calm down. Both sides. Cause in the grand scheme of things we are all in the same big boat. Time to try and work together, and drop the bitterness the sides have for each over. The process is done. Lets go Forward.

My only hope is that with the Dems eating their own after this (did you see the wacky lib smack Barrett) that they don't take little man Tate and looney Zelinsky out of the picture. What will make me laugh??

Maybe it was Madam Klop who slapped Barrett?

All DEMOCRATS are quiet like a church mouse.

Barrett went to hung a upset supporter as a gesture of good will and got slapped in the face as she was upset he conceded when he did. He was slightly stunned and kept his composure. He had to be disappointed as this only added insult and slight injury to his awful night .I feel sorry for him as he just wanted the night to end and than one of his own fruitcakes made him the target of the anger we seen for a year. One final Embarrassment
to end a longggggggggggggggggggg day of defeat!

Opps Barrett went to HUG .....ETC...

Hari Trivedi still has not conceded . He likely doesn't want too be beat up by a Barrett supporter.

Way to go Scott!! I am VERY PROUD of my state, the BEST STATE in the UNION! Wisconsin! Now to all you libs out there...
Shut up! You lost we won! Now get your collective heads out of your collective...A**es..suck it up and lets FINALLY get jobs back to the state and move FORWARD! That IS the state motto not just a Scott Walker talking point!

I just got back from the Expo. The crowd was several times what the building could hold. I got to meet almost every local and national politician from the Republican party (quite a few arrived after 9:30).

What I took away from the night was what a normal, humble person Scott is. Before the speech I was thinking how amazing it is that such a normal guy could make such hard decisions. Then he gave his speech, and it was about exactly what I had been thinking about - normal people making hard decisions.

Did anyone see the video of Barrett getting slapped after his speech? I can't find it.

Frickin Lehman - thanks a lot City of Racine for giving us that draft dodging piece of ....

If you think convincing one side to vote to take from the other is new you're wrong.Occupy WallStreet wants to take from 'banksters' & give to them instead,This liberal State was turned against the minority who had more benefits than they. No big deal. Watch them vote for Obama.

So it's the day after, have the liberals all run to Illinois for support and comfort?

HELLO EVERYONE HELP WANTED CHECK IT OUT http://internetpaydaysystem.com/lyla2011

Just glad it's finally over and we can pick up a newspaper and read about something else.
