The number of Wisconsin voters casting absentee ballots continues to decline from a pandemic-era spike, according to Wisconsin Elections Commission data released today.
Voters are heading to the polls across Wisconsin as voters weigh in on the state’s presidential primary, two proposed changes to the Wisconsin Constitution and a host of local races. Voters also will weigh in on school spending issues totaling about $1.4 billion across the state.
It’s a stunning trend: Four-year and two-year campuses are cutting back, merging, closing.
Milwaukee still the worst, while Elkhorn shows how to keep kids in school.
On Good Friday, Wisconsin’s Christians paused to reflect on the crucifixion of Jesus and plan for weekend family celebrations of his rising. Gov. Tony Evers used the time to veto 41 bills.
Too often, police agencies in Wisconsin are responding to requests for public information with blanket “open investigation” responses that are not adequately explained or clearly necessary. This denies the media — and the public — pertinent information about crimes that have happened in their backyards.
The way out of the morass is not to trade one woke behemoth for another, but to trade all behemoths for a true community driven journalism that promises to rebuild local journalism the only way it can be authentically rebuilt—from the bottom up.
The reflexive opposition to density and infill on the part of older and wealthier residents in Madison runs counter to the reality of our severe housing shortage and its dire impacts on those of more modest means.
Protected by the First Amendment, Edward R. Murrow denounced Joseph McCarthy on national news.
The head of the Wisconsin Realtors Association predicts only “minimal” changes following a national settlement related to commissions, due in part to Wisconsin’s existing consumer protections. The National Association of Realtors settlement announced last month came after lawsuits focused on
By voting yes on both Question 1 and Question 2, Wisconsin voters can prohibit the use of private funds in election administration and also ensure only legally designated election officials can perform election tasks. These ballot initiatives will bring much needed fairness to elections, ultimately leading to greater confidence in outcomes, if passed.
Wisconsin’s Democratic and Republican presidential primaries offer a variety of options for sending messages regarding the direction of the 2024 campaign — and the policies that will extend from it.
Some Wisconsin liberals want to vote “uninstructed” (uncommitted) on Tuesday because of U.S. support for Israel in Gaza. That’s a mistake.
It’s clear Biden and the Democrats will have to have the spin cycle in overdrive. Let’s clean house this fall.
In 2008, the Eurozone and the United States were roughly the same size based on their economies. Today the U.S. economy is twice the size of the Eurozone.
The two-horse race for the presidency may not satisfy people who wished for different candidates atop the Republican and Democratic tickets, but it has at least focused the debate on how well the American economy is – or isn’t – performing.
The city’s efforts to rezone swaths of Madison to make it easier for developers to build apartments without neighbors’ interference, add a bike path at the expense of mature trees and make life more difficult for drivers has, shall we say, touched a nerve.
The one absolutely solid research finding across many studies is that having police stationed in schools increases the number of children, especially Black children, who are referred to the criminal legal system and punished in school — mostly for minor discipline issues and petty thefts — while having no effect on serious crimes.
The direct gains flowing from profitable companies – compensation and benefits — is the job of current executives. It is not all about shareholder gains. A top priority of highly paid executives has to be restoring capitalism to high regard in the arena of public opinion. The era of resentment cannot stand.
Milwaukee Public Schools Superintendent Keith Posley says he’s “100% unsure” why many in the business community oppose the district’s proposed $252 million referendum on Tuesday’s ballot.
