Can tell a lot about a candidate by who endorses them!
If you’re happy with Madison public schools, clap your hands, because you will want to vote Satya Rhodes Conway for mayor. School board president Ali Muldrow has endorsed the mayor. The furthest left alders are also on board: Common Council president Keith Furman, vice president Jael Currie, alders Nikki Conklin, Julianna Bennett, Sabrina Madison, Yannette Figueroa Cole, and Tag Evers. Remember former alders Robbie Webber and Bert Zipperer? They’re on board, too.
Gloria Reyes’ endorsements tend to fall on the moderate spectrum, with the likes of Sheriff Kalvin Barrett, former mayor Paul Soglin, former Madison police chief Noble Wray. Add to that moderate alders Sheri Carter, Barbara Harrington McKinney, and candidate Ike Knox. Oh, and Kaleem Caire and Susanne Voeltz of Downtown Madison Inc.

Blaska’s Bottom Line is going with Scott Kerr as a protest vote. The guy is very personable and, after 42 years as a city employee, knows where the bodies are buried. His “Commonsense Solutions and Fiscal Responsibility” website lists no endorsements. My kind of candidate!

SRC in a landslide. People have forgot that she gave a free pass to domestic terrorists in 2020. And the smart people with the means to do it haved already moved out.
Madison will be a paradise for the hard left for the foreseeable future.
Agree. Madison is slowly devolving into another liberal run city with the “Haves” saying noting is wrong and the “Have nots” having to live in the mess.
She will be the first re-elected openly gay mayor of Madison, driving a laughable BRT system, chasing climate change, and throwing tax dollars on the homeless and equity.
