From Eric Dondero:

The Wisconsin State Supreme Court is 4 to 3 conservative to liberal. An election was held on Thursday to replace the outgoing Supreme Court Justice, a conservative. If the conservatives would have lost the election, it is highly likely that Governor Scott Walker's government union-busting reforms would have been overturned.

But despite what looked like a nail-biter late Tuesday night, the Right got the news it was hoping for.

From the NY Times, Politics, April 8:

Mr. Prosser — who had been about 200 ballots behind JoAnne Kloppenburg in a contest that seemed bound for a recount — had a net gain of more than 7,500 votes, and now has an overall lead of about that size. Although the election may still go to a recount, it is now highly unlikely that the outcome will change, unless another county discovers a discrepancy of the same magnitude, but in Ms. Kloppenburg’s favor

A vote counting error of more than 14,000 votes, by Kathy Nickolaus, the county clerk in Waukesha County, led to an early night call for liberal Kloppenburg.

Note - Prosser was enthusiastically endorsed by Sarah Palin.
