This is really funny.  There was an election for justice of the Wisconsin Supreme Court this week, and pro-union Democrats were hoping for a victory.  Their candidate was Democrat JoAnne Kloppenburg, who was trying to unseat Republican incumbent David Prosser.  When vote counting was nearly finished, Kloppenburg was up by 204 votes.  She called a press conference and claimed victory.

Then an election official disclosed a glitch in the count that had failed to record around 7,500 votes for Prosser.  When  these votes were added, Prosser was the clear winner.

Oops.  Now Kloppenburg has egg on her red face.

Dems and Unionists were hoping for a Kloppenburg win, so they would have a biased justice on the state supreme court, one who could help them from the bench in overturning anti-union legislation.  Now they won't get it.  Har de har har har!

It isn't often that really bad news turns into really good news.  Enjoy it.
