The people in the 6th district in Milwaukee, WI finally got it right. They did not re-elect their alderman who has been sitting in jail for the past 6 months. Boggles my mind that 40% of the voters still cast their vote for him, but luckily for the residents in their district they do not matter.
Maybe it is a good thing that voter turnout was light - the people who voted were informed and had a purpose, and that probably helped defeat him.

Election Day
And they say only 20% turnout is expected.
I find it funny that so many people whine about the government (local or federal) but they don't vote. Uhhh..DUH!
In our state we even have an alderman running for re-election from jail. And he may well win. Now that is sad.
Go vote already!
