Sandy Wiedmeyer Is the Conservative Choice for the 11th Senate District: Opinion
Republican voters in Wisconsin’s 11th Senate District have three names on the ballot Tuesday. In reality, however, this race has long been viewed as a contest between two candidates: Sandy Wiedmeyer and former State Rep. Ellen Schutt. While Nick Polce has sought office multiple times, he has not built the organization or campaign necessary to be widely viewed as a serious contender in this race. For conservatives, the choice is clear: Sandy Wiedmeyer. This race represents more than a choice between two Republicans. It is a choice between the grassroots and the political establishment. Ellen Schutt’s path to politics is the traditional one. She studied political science at UW-Madison, worked as a legislative staffer, and then won election to the Wisconsin State Assembly. Politics has been her profession. Wiedmeyer’s path

Man Responsible for Homecoming Horror Sentenced to Only Five Years in Prison, Will Likely Serve Three
Gil O. Melendez, 40, of Waukegan, Ill(Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office) KENOSHA, Wis. — Gil O. Melendez, 40, was sentenced Tuesday by Liberal Activist Judge Jodi L. Meier (D) to a total of five years of initial confinement in state prison after leading Pleasant Prairie police on a high-speed chase that ended in a violent crash involving a vehicle carrying Tremper High School students on their way to homecoming photos.

Special Prosecutor Declines Charges After Domestic Incident Involving Kenosha DA Xavier Solis’ Former Partner
KENOSHA, Wis. — A special prosecutor has declined to file criminal charges against a woman arrested following a domestic disturbance involving Kenosha County District Attorney Xavier Solis, concluding there was insufficient evidence to prove a crime beyond a reasonable doubt. The incident occurred on July 19, 2026, after Kenosha County Sheriff’s deputies responded to Solis’ residence at approximately 6:57 p.m. Because the incident involved the elected district attorney, the Kenosha County Sheriff’s Office requested that the Walworth County Sheriff’s Office take over the criminal investigation to avoid any conflict of interest. The woman was arrested on suspicion of domestic abuse disorderly conduct, transported to the Walworth County Jail, and later released after posting a $150 bond. Kenosha County Eye did not initially report on the arrest because there was no

Kenosha County Clerk Warns Against Using Stickers on Write-In Ballots Ahead of Election
KENOSHA, Wis. — Kenosha County Clerk Regi Waligora is warning voters and write-in candidates not to use stickers on election ballots, saying the practice is not authorized under Wisconsin law and could disrupt ballot-counting equipment on Election Day. In a news release issued Friday, Waligora said Wisconsin law does not explicitly allow voters to place stickers on ballots. While state statutes contain a narrow exception allowing election officials to place stickers on ballots if a candidate dies after ballots have already been printed, that exception does not apply to write-in campaigns or candidates encouraging supporters to use pre-printed labels. The county clerk cited guidance from the Wisconsin Elections Commission’s Election Law and Administration in Wisconsin Manual, published in June 2026, which states that state law neither expressly permits nor prohibits

Judge Sides with Danish Brotherhood, Rejects Somers’ Filing Arguments in Property Tax Dispute
George Stoner (D) – Somers Village President(File Photo by Kevin Mathewson, Kenosha County Eye) KENOSHA, Wis. — A Kenosha County judge has handed the Danish Brotherhood Lodge a significant victory in its lawsuit against the Village of Somers, rejecting the Village’s argument that the fraternal organization’s property tax exemption application was improperly filed or untimely. The ruling keeps alive the Lodge’s challenge to a roughly $16,000 property tax bill and shifts the legal battle to whether the organization’s use of its new Somers property qualifies for a tax exemption under Wisconsin law. Judge Angelina Gabriele ruled that the Danish Brotherhood timely and properly filed its property tax exemption application, rejecting the Village’s primary procedural defense. The court, however, has not yet determined whether the Lodge is entitled to a full
Sharing Center Executive Director Sharon Pomaville, 62, Retires After 15 Years, Leaving Behind a Legacy Praised by Many but Questioned by Others
TREVOR, Wis. — After more than 15 years as executive director of The Sharing Center, Sharon Pomaville (D), 62, has announced her retirement, bringing to a close a tenure that supporters credit with expanding the organization’s reach and securing a permanent home for the nonprofit. For many residents in western Kenosha County, Pomaville will be remembered for her work leading the Trevor-based nonprofit that provides food, housing assistance, and other support services to families in need.

Fellow Conservatives — It’s Time to Turn the Page on Sheriff David Zoerner: Opinion
On Tuesday, Republican voters will decide who will almost certainly become the next sheriff of Kenosha County. No Democrat or independent candidate filed for the office, making the Republican primary the election that will almost certainly decide who serves as sheriff for the next four years. This news outlet is not endorsing either of Sheriff David Zoerner’s opponents. Captain James Beller and Captain Tony Gonzalez can make their own cases to the voters. It is not this outlet’s place to tell people who to vote for. But this outlet is uniquely equipped with years of documented reporting on why Zoerner has been a terrible sheriff for the last three years, and it is not alone in that conclusion. Nearly everyone who works for him believes it too. After years of

Earlier in the case, Meier dismissed 14 of those felony charges. On Thursday, after hearing from several people who spoke on Poyner’s behalf, she imposed a prison sentence that was less than the maximum period of initial confinement authorized for the single felony offense to which he ultimately pleaded guilty.
