Stevens Point WI weather was fine...folks just don't care. It was for School Board and District 9 Alder...General Election is in April...I campaigned for one incumbent DEM, not in my district and worked on a masterpiece of a letter for her for 3 days...My alder got 77 votes, the other two got 107 and 76....My lady(69) is JFK next to the other 2 pups (1 Trumper 1 Green)with zero experience.

3975 voted for SB, 260 voted for D 9 Alder.

just verifying results...I hate to tell you but the SP Journal is garbage...Monday not one mention of Vote Day,not one mention of Presidents' Day...Ed Ghein and other killers was the front page and 2 pages inside...Of a 4 page paper....Gannett and USA Today have made it pure crap....they also endorsed Walker for Gov once. I stopped writing for them years ago...
