Republican Congressman Scott Fitzgerald easily won re-election in Wisconsin’s fifth district. He believes if the turnout in his district is high, it could be a good night for Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump and Senate candidate Eric Hovde.

“If I do well, that means at state it should go well,” Fitzgerald said. “Hopefully we’ll make Trump and Hovde. I feel good where we are now.”

But Fitzgerald is bracing for a long night of counting votes in high-population areas, especially after the trouble at the central count in Milwaukee.

“This will not instill any confidence in the central number, which has already been a problem and something that has been the subject of criticism for many years,” Fitzgerald said. “I hope it doesn’t come down to that, but it certainly looks like it’s going to happen at this point.”

“When you have actors in bad faith telling us they’re not going to accept the results of this election, it’s offensive,” Shelton said. “We will be here, in the streets, if we have to, because we are here to say: ‘Count every vote.’

The party collected enough signatures this year to put third-party candidate Claudia De la Cruz on the ballot in 19 states, including Wisconsin. PSL member and local De la Cruz campaign coordinator Erica Steib said this was the party’s biggest campaign to date.

Around 8 p.m., 30 people, mostly consisting of campaign volunteers from Madison and Milwaukee, gathered at the community center located on the south side of Milwaukee.

Attendees gathered to commemorate the party’s achievements, follow election updates on independent media platform Break Through News, and strategize the party’s plans to continue efforts to move the country away from the two-party system that they say is not serving the interest of working class citizens.

Steib said that during her campaign efforts, she heard at least once a week from Milwaukeeans that they weren’t going to vote until she talked to them about voting third-party.

Sen. Ron Johnson and Wisconsin GOP Chairman Brian Schimming were fielding questions

Sen. Ron Johnson and Wisconsin GOP Chairman Brian Schimming are questioning the recount of more than 30,000 ballots in Milwaukee.

Senator Ron Johnson and Wisconsin Republican Party Chairman Brian Schimming arrived at the ballot counting operation in the city of Milwaukee just after 7:30 p.m.

Their arrival followed news that the city was reprocessing 31,000 absentee ballots after an observer noticed that some doors covering the on-off switches on the vote-counting machines were not properly closed.

Schimming said they want to trust the process, but said he thought it was “fair” to ask questions when an issue involving so many ballots comes up.

Johnson said it “doesn’t ring a bell” that the city was prepared to count absentee ballots on Election Day.

We have no reason to believe there was any compromise to either car,” Fleming said. “But because they weren’t fully sealed — human error — and they weren’t fully sealed, we’re going to reset them all to zero again … and then we’re going to resume the balance that’s already been processed.”
