So, many of my blog readers know that I am the co-chair of Progressive Dane and the chair of their elections committee. Normally, when there isn’t a county board meeting about the jail, I’d be posting election results as they come in. Today, I’m way far behind, but for the record, it went well!
I don’t usually post Progressive Dane info here, but this one seems notable! Here’s our press release – seems funny to be quoting myself, quoting myself!
All 6 Progressive Dane Candidate with Primaries
Move on the General Election“Progressive Dane is proud of the hard work our candidates, their campaigns and our Progressive Dane volunteers have done over the last weeks.” said Brenda Konkel.

It was a good election night! As far as elections go!
The jail debate however, was another thing . . . video processing . . . post on its way . . .
p.s. I don’t intend for this to be Blaska bait, but I’m guessing it will be!
