State Investigating Vote Irregularities in Waukesha County Going Back Five Years

Just in tonight from the Wisconsin State Journal: “State investigating vote irregularities in Waukesha County going back 5 years”

Our report from earlier this evening offers a great deal more detail on the anomalies in question, and includes explanation (of a sort) and comment from Nickolaus who, the Journal reports, “was unavailable for comment Wednesday and Thursday.” She did, for whatever reason, manage to offer The BRAD BLOG comment on these concerns both yesterday and today, terse as it was. FWIW.
