Local highlights from Tuesday’s spring election …
- The South Milwaukee School District referendum passed, 57.5% to 42.4%.
- South Milwaukee School Board: Winners were incumbent Angie DeFord and Andy Simmons.
- South Milwaukee Alderman, District 2: Winners were incumbent Tim Backes and Michal Olechowski.
- South Milwaukee Alderman, District 4: Winners were incumbents David Bartoshevich and Peggy Clark.
Congratulations to all the winners — and to everyone who stepped up to run. I know it’s not easy, especially at this time in our history.
Thank you to everyone who voted. Turnout was 40% of registered voters, which I’d call strong given the non-competitive nature of the presidential primary race.
And thank you to everyone who administers our elections, from the clerk’s office to the rest of the city team to our poll workers. You continue to earn respect and will always have my support.
