Way to do the Walker administration's dirty work, Kathy. I hope it was worth it, preventing the will of the people in your own state.

Taunting DU members.

13. Original headline is "Wisconsin Candidate Finally To Concede."

14. Politico changed the headline and added a correction to the article

stating "The election was non-partisan, so Kloppenburg wasn't technically the Democratic candidate."

A search of Google News shows the original headline:
