The polls in Wisconsin are open from 7 AM until 8 PM, Tuesday April 2 for non-partisan local elections, i.e., mayor, county board, city alderman or councils, school boards, etc. And of course the 2024 Presidential Primary. There is NO reason for not voting. You may register at the polls!…

I have written about this on two previous occasions: ‘They’ Want To Recall Robin Vos. But It Isn’t Who You Think. and ‘They’ Want To Recall Robin Vos: Reprise . You would think after failing at their initial attempt to recall Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, under the weight of their…
