  • November 2008 OVERVIEW of WISCONSIN's ELECTION RESULTS
    November 2008 OVERVIEW OF WISCONSIN’S ELECTION RESULTS By Jordan Lamb Major Changes in State Assembly The State Assembly has switched from Republican control to Democratic control. The Republicans had control of the State Assembly since 1994. As a result of the November elections, the Democrats gained control of the State Assembly by defeating three incumbent Republicans in head-to-head races and by winning in two districts where Republican incumbents did not stand for re-election. The Democrats now have the majority with a margin of 52 – 46 with one (1) Independent. The Democrats gained control by winning some seats held by Republican incumbents or seats previously held by Republican retirees from office (open seats). Incumbent Republican Frank Lasee of Bellevue in the 2nd Assembly District was defeated by Democrat Ted Zigmunt of Francis Creek; Fred Clark of Baraboo defeated incumbent Republican J. A. (Doc) Hines of Oxford in the 42nd Assembly District; and Kristen Dexter of Eau Claire defeated Republican Terry Moulton of Chippewa Falls in the 68th Assembly District. Democrat Penny Bernard Schaber of Appleton defeated Republican Jo Egelhoff in the 57th Assembly District, left open by the retirement of Republican Steve Wieckert. Democrat Mark Radcliffe of Black River Falls defeated Republican Daniel Hellman of Onalaska to succeed Republican Terry Musser, who also declined running for re- election. Democratic control of the Assembly will bring noticeable logistical changes and some philosophical changes to the legislature. First, every Assembly committee will have a new chairperson who is a Democrat and several new faces on these committees. Secondly, the philosophical divide between the Assembly and Governor Doyle will not be as substantial as it was under Republican control.

  • Common Core Standards Are Hard to Top, Despite the Complaints
    Education Reform Still a good conservative idea By Michael J. Petrilli ack in 2010, when Wisconsin chose to adopt the Common Core state standards, it wasn’t a difficult Bdecision. While the Badger State has long led the na- tion on school choice, it has one of the worst records in the country on standards-based reform. Its reading and math standards were among the lowest in the country, and its tests among the easiest to pass — possibly explaining why Common Core Wisconsin’s student performance mostly flat-lined over the 2000s while other states made significant gains. Common Core gave Wisconsin a chance to start fresh, standards are aim higher and catch up to leading states like Massachu- setts. The standards haven’t changed over the past five years, hard to top, but the political calculus certainly has. Opposition to the Common Core has become a cause célèbre of the Tea Party — both its organic grass roots and its more opportunistic despite the fundraising factions. The main concern was the unfortunate role of the federal government in encouraging — some would say coercing — the states to adopt the Common complaints Core via the $4 billion Race to the Top initiative. So it’s not surprising that politicians — especially Re- publican governors — find themselves trying to triangulate between their anti-Common Core base and the business wing of the GOP, which sees these standards as important building blocks for stronger public schools and a more competitive economy. Enter Gov. (and presumptive presidential candidate) Scott Walker. Walker has a history of successful triangula- tion, particularly around Obamacare.
