The AP is reporting the Minnesota Supreme Court has ruled 5-0 that Democrat Al Franken be certified as the winner of the state’s long-running Senate race. The high court rejected a legal challenge from Republican Norm Coleman, who conceded the race to Franken earlier this afternoon. Coleman’s concession clears the way for Democrats to hold [...] How does this actually work? I see here that Minnesota is waiting for Wisconsin to pay the income tax monies owed to it under the tax reciprocity agreement with Minnesota. Does this also exist with Illinois?

There’s no denying the extension of the 794 freeway into the south shore suburbs has been a good [...] I’ve previously written about the plight of the residents of the Lake Bluff Apartment complex in South Milwaukee, who face the razing of their homes at the hands of the City of South Milwaukee. At issue is the position by the city that the Lake Bluff Apartments were built illegally and in violation of zoning [...] Governor Jim Doyle signed the state budget into law today, making this budget the firs since 1977 to have been completed before the start of the new fiscal year. Partisan differences have typically led to budget delays past the start of the fiscal year, but Democratic control of the Assembly, Senate, and Governor’s mansion [...] Former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich will be in Milwaukee tonight to help raise campaign funds for gubernatorial hopeful and fellow Republican Scott Walker.
