More B&E’s in Dodge County
11/3/08 - A message from Dodge County authorities to remain vigilant in reporting suspicious activity carries even more importance this morning. Two more business break-in’s were reported over the weekend and both involved businesses on Washington St. in the city of Horicon. Sheriff’s Department records show the owner of Marshland Drugs reported just before 11 yesterday morning that a door had been smashed open and that drugs were possibly taken. While investigating that burglary officers came across another forced entry at Tan Down Under. No word what, if anything was taken. The break-ins come on the heels of authorities arresting a total of five people from two different crime rings last week who are suspected in a number of burglaries in and around Beaver Dam.
Name Released in Columbia County Fatality
11/3/08 - An 18-year-old man killed in a one-vehicle accident in Columbia County Saturday night has been identified Corwin K. Herrick. According to Columbia County Sheriff Dennis Richards, the rural Pardeeville man was killed while driving on Fenske Road in the Town of Marcellon. He was the only person in the vehicle and was pronounced dead by the county medical examiner. The accident remains under investigation by the Sheriff’s Department but speed does appear to be a factor.

No Hassle’s at the Polls
11/3/08 - Unlike four years ago, Wisconsinites won’t have to worry about being hassled at the polls tomorrow. The state’s Government Accountability Board has approved new rules that prohibit partisan-and-legal poll observers from talking to voters. They must register with poll officials and wear name-tags telling who they are – and they must stay at least six-feet from the workers who check in voters. In the last presidential election, there were reports of observers questioning voters in line, and staring down at poll workers as they checked voters in. Republicans wore shirts saying “HAVA Volunteers,” in reference to the Help America Vote Act. That’s out this year as well, because observers cannot wear anything which indicates they have governmental authority. Both major parties say they’re happy with the new rules.
Some Voters Still Undecided
11/3/08 - At least four-percent of likely voters say they’re not sure who they’ll pick for president tomorrow. Many say they’ve watched the debates, compared the candidates’ stands, and have done lots of thinking. And still, they’re not sure if they’ll choose Democrat Barack Obama or Republican John McCain. An A-P poll last week said up to 14-percent of Americans have either not decided, or could change their minds before they hit the voting booths. McCain’s campaign manager expects more un-decided voters to choose his man. But U-W Madison professor Charles Franklin says there’s no evidence of that. After analyzing the recent polls, Franklin believes the un-decided voters will split about evenly between McCain and Obama.
