MILWAUKEE (WKOW) -- While Governor Scott Walker celebrated his historic win, an unusual moment was caught on camera at Democratic challenger Tom Barrett's election night party.

A supporter slapped barrett in the face. Our sister station, WISN reports the woman apparently told Barrett she wanted to slap him for conceding the race to Walker.

Barrett did not seem to have any hard feelings towards the woman and continued thanking supporters. The woman has not been identified.
