Mequon-Thiensville school board recall, incumbents win
Voters in the Mequon-Thiensville School district rejected the efforts to recall four board members Tuesday, Nov. 2, and this was a pretty remarkable turnout for this single item on the ballot.
MILWAUKEE - The latest Marquette University Law School poll released Wednesday shows that Wisconsin's featured incumbents are losing some support.
The survey found slipping approval ratings for Democratic Gov. Tony Evers, who is down from 50% to 45%. Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson stayed about the same, with a 36% favorable rating that ranks among the worst he’s received in this poll. Both Evers and Johnson will be on the ballot next year.
"It’s a challenging political environment for politicians generally and for incumbents specifically," Marquette pollster Charles Franklin said.
