JoAnne Kloppenburg Asks For a Recount of the April 5 Wisconsin Supreme Court election

[spues]

She is way out there. Whoa

[sndblstr]

I can't stand the way she speaks with that passive-aggressive soft voice!

[7beers]

She says that she has been consistent throughout. Actually, she isn't even consistent throughout a 3:39 clip. At the end, she states that she never claimed fraud, directly contradicting her claim at the beginning of the clip, when she stated, among other things: "There are legitimate and widespread anomalies and widespread questions about the conduct of this election...Wisconsin residents must have full confidence that these election results are legitimate and that this election was fair."

The law doesn't require anything, JoAnne (3:35). Class and grace suggest that you concede. If you have questions about Waukesha County, fine, recount it. Both sides would agree that recounting Waukesha County is a reasonable request. But why spend the taxpayers' money throughout the entire state? What does this request say about your judgment? Answer: Nothing flattering.

Imagine being a known conservative accused of a crime and you get this political hack as your judge. Horrifying.

[krugcpa]

Another painful performance. If the Dems really want to make sure that elections are fair and honest, then pass voter ID and get rid of same-day registration. At 1:50, did she not expect to be asked this question? At 2:45, she denies regret for declaring victory with an unconfirmed 200 vote lead, but now that the official canvas is complete, she won't concede defeat despite trailing by 7,000+ votes? She lacks the character and perspective to judge anything. All Badgers, use your brains!

KlipKlop can't even get through a simple announcement without lying - her claim that the law "requires" a recount is 100% pure bovine excrement, else she would not have had to make a formal request for one. Her hypocrisy in requesting a recount, after her post-election call for Prosser to concede when the UNcertified vote count had her a mere 200-odd votes ahead, is astounding. One look at her black-shirted thugs, who tried to squelch a legitimate question, says all you need to know about her.

[IndependentVoter71]

@Cyberstudmuffin - Yeah, she's a liar. One of the idiots in the pressroom should have asked her about her "require" whopper. "Allows up request from the loser"? Yes. "Requires"? That's a bald-faced lie. WI dodged a bullet on this one. What's scary is that she came so close to winning.

[12013obamaslastday]

There are legitimate and wide spread questions as to the true gender of this left wing moonbat.

[DTownzz]

We need a final solution to these insidious conservative bloggers. Questions and concerns have been asked. My staff is trying to chant thank you, so you know I'm right.

[DTownzz]

THANKKKKK YOU!!!!!! BABABABABABABABABA

Meanwhile, goons in black turtlenecks weed out all the questions that are 'Prosser Friendly'. What's up with that? Can Kloppenburg hold a press conference without filling the room with her own staff? Pathetic.

When she was asked if she won, I wonder why she didn't just say 'asked and answered'. She was so certain in the last conference.

[WillaPhillips]

--OMG! This is frightening and embarrassing to watch. If this is typical of our jurist quality, well, all I can say is, WE'RE GOING DOWN.

[jnstomtom]

God must be watching over Wisconin and blocked this sad idiot from becoming one of our justices.

[IndependentVoter71]

Kloppity Klopp: "I feel like blah blah blah."

Next question

Kloppity Klopp:  "I don't feel, I work in facts and litigation."

How did this brain-dead moron become a judge?

[Revy2008]

well if she likes to deal in facts then she should just go home... the facts... you LOST by over 7000 votes, go HOME loser :P

[IndependentVoter71]

Hoo Boy. Rarely do you see an uncomfortable pause like we saw @1:45. Nobody prepped her for that obvious question? This dingbat claimed victory with a 200-vote lead, but now she won't concede when down by over 7300 votes. Kloppity Klopp is obviously just a puppet of the public unions.

[mindsaglowin]

Now, it's how people "feel" about the results of an election, not the hard facts, that are important. Where are we going?

[DTownzz]

The question at 1:40 or so, with the unbelievably pregnant pause from 1:49 to 2:09 or so, is just plain amazing.

She knows she didn't win.

And I have to laugh at the crank in the black turtleneck trying to talk over a reasonable question. She announced and insisted she won before the election was certified. Why would someone jump the gun on that if they really think we need to shine light on any question before it's over with a margin 30 times greater?

Because Klopp is not honest.

[Timasu]

She seems aloof and timid. Why did she claim victory when she was ahead by only a few hundred votes, and not concede when she lost by thousands.

[BrotherOrchid]

Recount is code word for going to Kinko's.
