Big Ed has the Wisconsin Poll Countdown Clock! I hope he's still on when the polls close OR

that MSNBC will have special coverage. I've been SO disappointed today that there hasn't been more on this (although to be fair, there's no NEWS until the votes are tallied).

This will be devastating if it goes badly. I want those good people of Wisconsin to get somebody in that office that CARES about them!

I've been watching Ed on and off, and the conversation, even with John Nichols, didn't seem to get to the point. I'm embarrassed to say that as a fairly close watcher of the Walker recall, I seem to have lost track of the basics recently. It would help if they would recaps to get viewers up to speed. I agree that they need special coverage and more coverage.

It looks like a rerun of Walker versus the guy he ran against just a few months ago and THAT guy was not very Pro Union.

Whoever wins those will run against each other in June.

I don't know what else is on today's ballot.
