Wisconsin Recall Election is Tonight...
OP note: I wish these results were better for the Dems. So far only one Rep is a sure fire loser (Kapanke), but all these recall elections are happening in districts that are mostly Republican and have been dominated by Republicans for decades. The fact that these elections are happening at all let alone running so close.

Six Wisconsin senators fought Tuesday to keep their jobs in a recall election, trying to beat back Democratic challengers who stoked a political backlash against Republican Gov. Scott Walker for his efforts to strip public employees of most union rights.
Fueled by millions of dollars from national labor groups, the attempt to remove GOP incumbents could shift control of the Wisconsin Senate to Democrats and provide a new gauge of the public mood less than a year after Republicans made sweeping gains in this state and many others.
Huff Po (and many other sites) are following the results and all of the latest developments to unfold in the Badger State. Check out the live blog here
