Democrats flip 88th Assembly District as Tollefson upsets Franklin

Democrats on Nov. 3 won the two most competitive legislative elections in northeastern Wisconsin, contributing to an expected Democratic Party trifecta in Madison and adding to a swath of Democratic victories across the nation. Democratic candidate Brandy Tollefson, treasurer for the De Pere School Board, unseated Republican state Rep. Benjamin Franklin by 8.5 percentage points to represent Assembly District 88, which includes De Pere, Allouez, Bellevue, and part of Green Bay. “I am sincerely grateful to the voters of our community for the trust they have placed in me," Tollefson said in a statement. "To all of our volunteers, my friends and family: thank you, truly. When we launched this campaign in January, we had a vision of building a better future here in Brown County, where our schools are fully funded, healthcare is within reach, and families can afford to live and thrive. I look forward to the task of making that vision a reality as your next state representative.” And Democratic Rep. Ryan Spaude held onto his seat against Republican challenger and former Milwaukee police officer Bobby Lindsey in Assembly District 89, winning by 12.6 percentage points to represent Ashwaubenon and the west side of Green Bay.

After school referendum fails, Pulaski says it's looking to the future

The Pulaski School District residents voted down a nearly $60 million capital referendum on Nov. 3, upsetting the district's plans for additions and renovations that included two new pools. Now, the district says, it'll use that community decision to guide its plans moving forward. "This decision by the PCSD community gives the district greater direction in its always-ongoing facilities planning process," district communications director Eric Schreiber said in a statement. "Creating and maintaining functional facilities that meet the needs of our students and community remains a top priority. At the proper time, projects may be reevaluated or reconfigured to better fall in line with our community’s priorities and serve our students." The statement thanked those who voted and took time to consider the referendum. At this point, the district has not responded to follow-up questions about whether it will pursue a referendum in April or whether it plans to close the pool. Why did Pulaski's referendum fail? The referendum vote came after the village of Pulaski completed a $15 million water infrastructure project that more than doubled an average resident's water bill, from $151 to nealry $352 per quarter. Several residents who opposed the water bill increase linked the higher
