No, the figures are not "more accurate", they are different, using different parameters.
Walker has to go to this obtuse method to show a job gain.
Most people, especially economists, are aware of that. I am. You?
The good thing is that, due to other recalls, Walker has already lost his majority of legislature, so the checks and balances on his ALEC and KOCH agenda will now be in place, even if he wins his recall election. There are still other recalls pending on election day, too. Wisconsin citizens are mad. They recalled these dangerous bozos as soon as they could legally do so. Historic lack of voter confidence.
The worse thing is Walker lied during his campaign, and lied to the public after his election. He said he was not trying to union bust, but he's caught on video tape saying his intention is to "divide and conquer" to union bust. He's a proven, demonstrable liar, and a mere tool of the ALEC GOP agenda. Here is the video of Walker lying. With comments from George Carlin:

That's a bit worse than "ACORN registers voters OMG!"
Walker also has a massive
ongoing felony investigation of the illegal political practices that occurred within his office at his last government job, has had to
create a defense fund for that (only permissable to legally create if he's undergoing investigation) and he's ruined the states' budget, with massive
deficit due to his tax cuts and with his having to
take money from suffering homeowners to close a little bit of his gap. I can't imagine why you are so angry and defending this loser. If the above had been done by a Democratic governor, you're head would be exploding in your rush to get him recalled and out of office. So would my head. That's why Walker has been recalled, and must undergo another election if he wants to regain his seat.
