…did the Dems turn out today to defend the two Democratic Senators who are being recalled in Wisconsin? As of this moment, the Republican is leading 55-45 in one race with 17% of the vote counted, while in the other, the Democrat is hanging on to his seat 52-48 with 22% counted. Go here to follow the results as the night wears on.
UPDATE: In District 12, Democrat Jim Holperin has upped his lead over Republican Kim Simac to 55-45 with 32% of the votes in.
MORE: Oops. With 26% counted, District 22 is moving in the wrong direction, with the Republican now up by only two points, 51-49.
GOOD NIGHT: It’s not quite over, but close: it would have been nice top capture one of these, but the bottom line is that the GOP holds Wisconsin’s Senate despite untold millions of ill-gotten union money flowing into the state. Let’s just hope that the ladies from Maine don’t have a cousin in Wisconsin!
