According to the
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, Democrat Steve Kagen has defeated GOP state assembly speaker John Gard. Kagen is currently leading 52.4% to 47.6% with 67% of precincts reporting!
Woo hoo! Wisconsin loses one of the nastiest, most partisan assembly speakers and gains a great representative in the House! Congratulations Steve Kagen!!
[UPDATE: in my haste, I failed to note that this is a Dem pickup, as the seat was formerly held by Republican Mark Green (who lost to Democratic incumbent Jim Doyle in the gubernatorial race). Woo Hoo!!! ]
