For those of us in Allouez, The Original Austin's was more than just a grocery store, it was a favorite neighbor
ALLOUEZ - I can count on one hand how many times I’ve been inside a Kwik Trip , but the number of times I “quick ran to Austin’s” might be a thousand or more. It was my convenience store of choice. In my 23 years in Allouez, I’ve walked those retro green and white floor tiles often. For a weekly run to grab a gallon of milk from Lamers Dairy or the Door County cherry-marinated chicken breasts to put on the grill. For those ridiculously good homemade Special K bars even when I shouldn’t have. For that one ingredient...

Wisconsin clerk who failed to count almost 200 ballots is suspended
MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The mayor of Wisconsin’s capital city said Wednesday that she has placed the municipal clerk on leave as investigators work to determine how she failed to count almost 200 absentee ballots in the November election. Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway said in a statement that the city has launched an investigation and that she needed to suspend City Clerk Maribeth Witzel-Behl to maintain public confidence in the clerk’s office. The mayor added that the city will spare no expense to ensure every vote is counted heading into the swing state’s spring election. The state Elections Commission also is investigating whether Witzel-Behl violated any state laws or abused her discretion. The uncounted ballots did not change the results of any races but four Madison voters whose ballots weren’t counted filed claims last week for $175,000 each from the city and Dane County, the first step toward initiating a lawsuit. The mayor’s spokesperson, Dylan Brogan, said Witzel-Behl will continue to be paid during her suspension. She makes $152,300 annually. No listing for her personal contact information could be immediately found.
