11:06 PM: Butler says race a 'nailbiter'
Justice Louis Butler was greeted enthusiastically by about 100 supporters as he arrived as his Election Night party. He gave hugs as he walked through the room as fans showered him with applause.
Butler told WisPolitics the race was "a nailbiter" and he was anxiously awaiting a final tally.
"We're hoping the result shows the voters of Wisconsin reject negative campaigning and the type of nasty campaigning that went on in this race," he said. "Like everyone here, we still have to wait for the results to come in."
