Man dies after crashing stolen car, nine weapons recovered

Sometimes, one candidate in an election is so head-and-shoulders above his opponent the endorsement is a no-brainer. That is the case in this year's race to represent District 8, where Scott Resnick has shown that he is the best person to serve on Madison's Common Council.
Working as a Madison Common Council alderman requires a pragmatic approach to city politics, new policy initiatives and an openness to differing opinions. That is why we are endorsing Sam Stevenson for District 2.
The past few months have brought out the bad side of Wisconsin politics with most, if not all, of the ugliness stemming from Gov. Scott Walker's controversial budget repair bill. While I think Walker's reforms will guide Wisconsin toward a more stable fiscal future, the manner in which the bill passed and the events following its implementation have dragged Wisconsin further into the dirty ditch of partisan politics.
