Including keeping election data on "stand-alone personal computers: not accessible by Waukesha County officials, the Journal Sentinel has reporter.
Outside, independent data-preservation probe needed, now.

This is so easy it is pathetic.
This was a missing city via a clerical area, not a box of found ballots.
Simply go count the actual votes in Brookfield and see if they are there. Instead, there will be an attempt to turn this into some type of Area-51 conspiracy.
Just as in poker where the cards speak for themselves, the votes in Waukesha County are and will tell the tale.
A tabulation screw up is just that.
Hopefully this will lead to some reform to our voting process which up until now you Progressives claimed was perfect as is.
It is easy to count the votes left behind after a reasonable suspicion of election fraud has arisen. Just like it's easy to count the money left after the suggestion or suspicion of robbery has arisen.
But in circumstances such as this, there must be immediate intervention and careful investigation by highly competent law enforcement investigators - a thorough, immediate investigation, not to "reassure the voters" that an innocent mistake was made by one incompetent official willing to take the fall, but an investigation to protect and defend democracy.
However, reagan's disciple just might be "right"(if you'll excuse the expression) when he keeps putting the spin "pathetic" on this outrage.
OK, maybe you're right, R.D. Pathetic. Absolutely, unquestionably, nothing but pathetic. Let's consider that:
What else can we expect from those ignorant, rubes ruling the illiterate backwaters of Waukesha County? Every other county in the entire state managed to make a timely and accurate preliminary report, and always does. Only the poor, afflicted, backwards county of Waukesha couldn't help but blow it. You have to feel sorry for them, embarrassing themselves in public, and before the whole world, like that.
Certainly we in Wisconsin expect, and we get, basic competence under normally and much more difficult and challenging conditions from the multitude of polling place and election officials running the diversity of precincts, wards, and polling places that constitute, for example, the great and highly sophisticated City and County of Milwaukee. We know, of course, that all those precinct and election officials in Milwaukee, across the board, are much more organized and highly computer tech-savvy wizards than the bubbas of Waukesha County, and would never make such an outrageous, shockingly exceptional election night blunder, as the one the bumbling dufus in charge of the election count in that hick-town Waukesha County has "confessed" to.
Undoubtedly, the person who happens to have the top position and responsibility for conducting elections in that suburban wilderness has a wildly inflated resume that falsely implies she is a voter data base computer expert. Undoubtedly her previous bosses (including David Prosser himself, when he was Republican Speaker of the Assembly, and the Republican Party, and the voters of Waukesha County) were hoodwinked into employing and trusting her alleged professional competence.
Very pathetic. Nothing but pathetic. No reason for any suspicion of anything else.
Look in the mirror, you conservative hypocrites!
Or on television at least: the 5:00 news featured 2 angry white vote observers from Germantown rudely harrassing a black poll worker in a Milwaukee precinct, speaking directly to the camera and saying that there was no "chain of evidence" with several precinct's votes. In the background, she comes up and slaps some papers on the table and says, 'you're wrong'. Later, he says 'I was wrong' but no apology to the interviewer, the camera, the poll worker or the Clerk.
If two black men had acted the same in a Waukesha polling place on Tuesday, they'd already be in Guantanamo getting waterboarded by now.
The 2 Germantown observers could have saved a lot of gas money by driving to Brookfield or Waukesha County offices to wield their observational skills.
Our 2-tiered justice system at work.
I'm sure Sheriff Clarke will look into it.
