UPDATE to Wisconsin GAB and the State Supreme Court Recount

UPDATE, 5:30 p.m. 5/20/'11
Contrary to the promise on the Wisconsin GAB website this morning that there would be some new information before noon, there has not been.

More than that however, the previous page, linked below in red, which showed the counties which had completed their recount, and the results for each in pdf format has been TAKEN DOWN!

It was anticipated that the one remaining county for which the recount was not yet complete, the county with the major problems and the serious questions about integrity and validity - Waukesha - might be completed either today, or alternatively, Monday at the latest.

The statement on the GAB website which asserted that open bags did not in and of themselves constitute any crime of voter fraud or ballot tampering is also gone.  The bags were stored during the recount in the office actively occupied by the County Clerk who was at the center of the recount controversy, which certainly raised eyebrows for me, given the problems with security during the election and the suspicious manner in which the ballots - precisely the number which would make it necessary for Candidate Kloppenburg to PAY for the recount - mysteriously appeared after the election seemed to be won by Ms. Kloppenburg.

I will be watching for some announcement to be made by the GAB, but if one has not been made by this late hour, I doubt that anything will happen yet tonight, but I will keep watching and waiting for any news.
