It seems her mistake was not "saving" it to the data she was sending AP. They were never lost or suddenly found. There was also 14,000 not 7500unreported.
Wis. county corrects Supreme Court race vote count to give incumbent Prosser 7,500-vote edge - 4/7/2011 8:32:32 PM | Newser
Waukesha County Clerk Kathy Nickolaus said more than 14,000 votes weren't reported to The Associated Press on Tuesday due to "human error." Nickolaus previously worked for a GOP caucus that was under the control of Justice David Prosser, who was speaker of the Assembly at the time and who now stands to benefit from the clerk's error.
"This is not a case of extra votes or extra ballots being found," Nickolaus said. "This is human error, which I apologize for."
Nickolaus said the most significant error occurred when she entered totals from the city of Brookfield, a suburb of Milwaukee, but they were not saved.
And there's a big question.
Who cares if the correct vote totals were not reported to the AP the first time out? The AP has no juridiction of any sort. The report that matters goes to the Secretary of State, in a formal certifying letter.
