And it wasn’t even close.
South Milwaukee voters in the Republican primary supported Mitt Romney with 49.7% of the vote, topping Rick Santorum (34.9%) and Ron Paul (10%) locally, according to a summary of South Milwaukee results.
Statewide, Romney won easily, but by a smaller margin over Santorum.
For what it’s worth — and it’s hard to read tea leaves on this one given voting dynamics in a primary — President Barack Obama got 1,195 votes locally on Tuesday compared to 2,813 combined votes in the Republican primary.
