Another update thread. JoAnne Kloppenburg continues to lead David Prosser by 224 votes in the Wisconsin Supreme Court race. There are three precincts still remaining, all in Prosser territory.
11:57am: The final precinct in Jefferson County, Lake Mills, will resume counting at 12:45pm eastern. There are about 700-760 votes there. Prosser won 56% of the precinct in the primary, but that should drop a bit in this election.

First off, it looks like counting is all but done in that remaining precinct in Lake Mills town in Jefferson County. David Prosser gains just two votes over JoAnne Kloppenburg, though there are still two dozen handwritten ballots to be counted. The actual margin is a bit of a moving target, since the AP keeps futzing with their numbers, but as of this precise moment, it seems like KloJo is up by about 330 votes.
Second, Eric Compas has graciously allowed us to reproduce this map of results by county (click for full-size version):
And finally, the National Journal has this fascinating statistic:If Kloppenburg's narrow margin holds up through the potential recount, it will be just the fifth time a Wisconsin Supreme Court justice has been unseated since the court's establishment in 1852.
So now we move on to the absentees, and almost assuredly, a recount. Hang on to your hats!
UPDATE: Some folks are saying that absentees have been counted. First off, military/overseas ballots only had to be postmarked as of yesterday, so those will still come in. Second off, some media reports indicate that not all absentees have been counted:
Madison city clerk Maribeth Witzel-Behl said absentee ballots submitted on Monday far outpaced the absentee count from the presidential primary of February 2008. The ballots haven?t been counted yet, but the high turnout is said to likely benefit Kloppenburg.
The National Journal also says there are absentee ballots to be counted. I realize some folks are insisting that all absentee ballots have been counted, but given that sources are conflicting on this - and given that military ballots can still come in and be valid - I would suggest we hold off from assuming all votes are in at this point.
