The Wisconsin Government Accountabilty Board, which oversees elections in the state, voted Monday to certify a recall targeting Republican state Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald.

The GAB is also discussing three other recalls targeting GOP state senators — which would put control of the chamber in contention, along with the recall targeting Gov. Scott Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch.

The precise timing of the recalls is still an issue to be determined, but they are likely to be held at the same time, at some point in June.
