In-person absentee voting is now open, and runs through Friday, March 31.
Anyone planning on being out of town or unable to make it to the polling place on election day — or for any reason, really — can cast an absentee ballot at the clerk’s office at City Hall, 2424 15th Ave. Hours are 7:30 to 4 p.m. Mondays-Thursdays, and 7:30 to 5 p.m. on Fridays. Remember to bring your photo ID.
Here is a sample ballot for the spring primary.
Of course, I am running for re-election this spring, and I ask for and appreciate your support. You can learn more about my campaign here.
Other contested races are for South Milwaukee School Board, Milwaukee County Circuit judge Branch 47 and state school superintendent. There is also a countywide referendum question on the ballot around a wheel tax.
More details on voting here. See you at the polls!
South Milwaukee Blog 
Is this a personal blog, or is this a blog from the city?
Personal. I launched it seven years ago. https://southmilwaukeeblog.com/about/
It would be great to have a City-produced blog with all Department Heads supplying info from their Departments at least once a month, or more often if possible. I suppose the responsibility for this would fall to the City Administrator’s or Clerk’s offices. Even a volunteer who would devote his/her time or even a high school student who could maybe earn extra credit for that work. Department Heads would have to submit their info by a certain date and the person in charge would arrange all for the blog. Just an idea. I appreciate what you are doing, Mayor, to keep us informed.
