MADISON, Wis. -- State election officials have given the final go-ahead for a recall election against GOP state Sens. Alberta Darling, Sheila Harsdorf and Sen. Robert Cowles.

The Government Accountability Board cleared the way Tuesday for a recall election, although it did uphold a number of GOP challenges to the recall petition.

If the Republicans decide not to challenge the GAB's decisions in court, the recall elections will likely be held this summer.

Three Democratic senators are also being targeted for recalls. The GAB last week delayed a final decision on recall efforts against them, saying it needs more time to review challenges.

Grand news. I wish I could figure out the delay in the Dem recalls by the GAB (I certainly do NOT want these Dem recalls).

1. The delays in the Dem recalls is a good sign.

It shows that the grounds for those recalls, if not the petitions themselves, are flimsy and our candidates are more likely to survive the recall.

3. Guess i am paranoid as I think the delay is to give Repugs more time

to fund raise.

4. Nah, the Dem challenges are fundamentally different.

The Democrats have challenged the recall petitions against them in a different way, which has contributed to the delays. The Democrats allege fraud was perpetrated in gathering many of the signatures and, because of that, all of them should be thrown out

2. Yipppeee skippy!

...this should be going on nationwide.

Recall this GOBPer/RushThug/T.HATERbagger scum.
