Mike Van Someren for Wisconsin’s 5th Congressional District

Margaret Krolikowski, Jefferson
Scott Fitzgerald is up for re-election to Congress for the 5th district.  I cannot forget or forgive, that the first vote he cast after being sworn in is to reject the Electoral votes from Wisconsin.  Basically, saying our votes should not count. This is the same election that put him in congress.

Perusing the Watertown Daily Times

Ben Adams, Watertown
The front page article was about 92 school districts seeking operational funding through ballot referendum.  Waterloo, McFarland, Sun Prairie, Fort etc. etc.  Citizens are being asked for money to fund operational costs, staff salaries, making the schools run!  They need to exceed revenue limits imposed by the WI State legislature.  Without them passing, schools face staff cuts or increased class size.

Pro-Life? Pro-Birth

Jim Marousis, Fort Atkinson
It seems to me that most people who call themselves pro-life are in reality only pro-birth. Ron Johnson.  Once the child is born (even in cases where the health of the mother is threatened), they consider their job complete. Tim Michels.

What would you, candidate, do for us?

Patricia Giese, Johnson Creek
I am dismayed by all the political noise of those television ads leading up to the mid-term elections this Fall. So much of what we are hearing is simply lies. I miss the “Fairness Doctrine”, abolished by Reagan, which required parties to speak the truth and present both sides of the story.
