As a Stoughton homeowner for over 20 years and now a riverfront homeowner, I am in favor of the proposed whitewater park and the dam removal that will allow it to happen.

The 2020 general election is likely going to be the most important in our lifetimes. Amidst a pandemic and a sudden national awareness of systemic racism, everyone is eager to cast a ballot in November. Many have considered the ways in which the USPS crisis will affect their voting process, …

As a resident of Stoughton for the past 20+ years, I feel compelled to tell you about my experience this past weekend.

I would like to thank all poll workers for following the laws and strict guidelines that poll workers must do as a civic duty!

As the Nov. 3 election draws near, more and more concern is being expressed by politicians and the media about the security of voting by mail. The big concern is: “If I mail in my absentee ballot, how do I know the postal system will deliver it to my local clerk in a timely manner? Will my v…

I am unashamed to be a card carrying member of a party and l regular voter. Don’t I wish everyone was?

In the past two years, two excellent public works employees have left our town.

In early May, after Wisconsin’s initial 60-day health emergency shutdown, the State Supreme Court told the Ever’s Administration in a very odd and unhelpful ruling, “that’s it, no statewide management. . . virus management is now a local matter.” Result?? Over the past two weeks, new highs i…

There have been recent editorials suggesting eastside residents are against KwikTrip or any development. That is not true.

I admit to being discouraged when I retired from our Legislature. But that is why it is so important to me that Rep. Melissa Sargent be elected for the Senate seat being vacated by Mark Miller.

Now, more than ever, Wisconsin youth have been speaking out about the improvements and radical changes they demand to see at local, state, and federal levels.
