Wisconsin Supreme Court race still too close to call

From the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:

Justice David Prosser clung to a narrow lead over Assistant Attorney General JoAnne Kloppenburg in the state Supreme Court race early Wednesday, after a hard-fought campaign dominated by political forces and outside interest groups.

As of 7:35 this morning, the Associated Press had results for all but 24 of the state's 3,630 precincts and Prosser's overnight lead had grown slightly from fewer than 600 votes to 835 votes.

That close margin had political insiders from both sides talking about the possibility of a recount, which Wisconsin has avoided in statewide races in recent decades. Any recount could be followed by lawsuits - litigation that potentially would be decided by the high court.

We'll be following this nail-biter throughout the day. jump23 is also keeping on top of results in a recommended diary.
