AP: Roggensack defeats Fallone in state...

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Pat Roggensack has won a second 10-year term.

Roggensack beat Marquette University law professor Ed Fallone in Tuesday's election.

Roggensack is generally viewed as part of a four-justice conservative majority on the state's highest court. While the race was officially nonpartisan, Roggensack had support from Republicans.

Fallone was backed by unions and Democrats. He argued that Roggensack is part of a dysfunctional court that has opened itself up to the influence of special interests.

2. Not very optimistic.....I voted and prodded everyone I could think of but.....

The inmates are firmly in control of the prison.

3. Fallone campaign was silent

Gave him a few $, no follow up emails, invisible on TV, no calls, no gotv.

So sadly, not a surprise.

Hope Earl pulls it out, but Repugs are very good here in low turnout elections.

Still hoping for the best for my poor Wisconsin.
