+7,300

The AP reports:

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice David Prosser is on track to lead challenger JoAnne Kloppenburg by about 7,300 votes after all counties finish verifying the ballots cast in last week’s election — a margin that would be difficult to overcome even with a statewide recount.

As of Monday, 69 of the state’s 72 counties had finished verifying the vote totals from last week’s election and reported them to the Government Accountability Board. The last and largest county — Milwaukee — likely won’t be finished with its work until Wednesday at the earliest, according to the GAB. Votes from Crawford and Sauk counties also have not been submitted yet.

Adding in the unofficial results as reported on election night from the four outstanding counties, Prosser would finish with 7,303 more votes than Kloppenburg out of nearly 1.5 million cast.
