Kathleen Falk is THE Most Electable Candidate (updated)

Lets take a look at an updated graphic:
For those who think a "dane county liberal" can not be elected,lets compare how well Joanne Kloppenburg (who did not campaign in northern, WI) did compared to Tom "top of ticket" Barrett. Clearly all of the evidence points to Kathleen Falk being the "most electable" candidate!! Also wanted to point out that there is some misinformation about Kathleen Falk losing her statewide race in a big year for democrats.
Let us look at the ACTUAL RESULTS from that race!

Total Votes:

Jim Doyle: 1,139,115
Mark Green: 979,427

JB Van Hollen: 1,065,453

Kathleen Falk: 1056,594

Statewide Kathleen Falk drew 82,521 less votes than Jim Doyle and lost to JBVH by 8859. That is 10%, if 1 in ten people who voted for Doyle and did not vote for Falk had done so she would have won!

Now lets look at Dane County:

Jim Doyle: 149,661

Mark Green: 58302

JB Van Hollen: 72,348

Kathleen Falk: 138,507

In Dane County Kathleen Falk underperformed Jim Doyle by 11,154 votes. She lost the state by 8859. So breaking this down again, if80% of the people who voted for Doyle and did not vote for Falk would have, no one would know who JB Van Hollen is right now!
Now try and tell me that the Peg Lautenschlager supporters did not affect this race! 

PS: I have no problem with the Peg supporters feeling slighted and not voting Kathleen(even though I wish they would have voted for Kathleen). I just wanted to debunk the silliness that Kathleen Falk has not run and can not win a statewide election.

Kathleen Falk is THE most electable candidate we have! 

Tell all your friends, family and neighbors!
