Less than a week from now, Wisconsin goes to the polls for its spring primary. Be sure to get out there and vote for Brittany Kinzer. She will be joining me at about 4:06 this afternoon. Last night the Milwaukee Board of School Directors announced its new superintendent. Brenda Kaselius will fill the role vacated by former Superintendent Keith Posley, who resigned in disgrace in June after a financial scandal that saw the district unable to account for nearly 800 million doll in federal taxpayer Covid relief funds that it still hasn't accounted for. Good thing Milwaukee taxpayers will have to foot the bill for a new $250 million referendum that was approved by voters last spring. (38:34–39:04)
