Tuesday's the day to vote By Ray Barrington News-Chronicle The first round ends Tuesday. That's the first round of elections. And for some, it'll be a first-round knockout. Tuesday is the first of four election days this year. This time around, you'll get to vote for the highest office in the land and some of the folks who decide on such local issues as policing and garbage. The big draw is the presidential primary, with all of the major candidates having made at least one stop in Green Bay. John Kerry, the Democratic front-runner, will complete the cycle when he shows up at the Phoenix Sports Center on the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay campus at 3:30 p.m. with the other U.S. senator from Massachusetts, Ted Kennedy, along with him. Although there will be plenty of names on the Democratic ballot, only Kerry, John Edwards, Howard Dean, Dennis Kucinich and Al Sharpton are running. All except Sharpton will have been here by Tuesday. Gone from the race - but not the ballot - are Wesley Clark, Dick Gephardt, Carol Moseley Braun and Joe Lieberman. Lyndon H. LaRouche, a perennial political gadfly, is also on the ballot. There's a Republican primary as well, with George W. Bush running, and even a Libertarian primary, with scholar Michael Badnarik and talk-show host Gary Nolan. The candidates even had a debate in Green Bay last month. You can only vote in one presidential primary, although all three will be on the ballot. You can vote for an "uninstructed" delegation as well if you want to keep your options open. The other half of the ballot won't be used in some places, as there are a handful of primaries for Brown County Board and Green Bay City Council. Pulaski will have a primary to whittle nine candidates to six for three spots, while the town of Scott has five candidates to whittle down to four. Running in Scott are Colleen Harris, Jason F. Horkman, Stephen Peter Wirtz, Mike Van Lanen and Lee Vanden Langenberg. Pulaski also has a referendum on school bonding, while in the village of Howard, a question asks if snowmobiles should be allowed on the Mountain Bay trail through the village. Six candidates are running for two seats on the Luxemburg-Casco School Board. They include incumbent Dale R. Jandrain and challengers David R. Charles, Sr., Rick Hegnet, Randy T. Hallet, Carmine R. Nell and Jodi Falk. Incumbent Dan Wautlet decided not to seek another three-year term. Primary voters in the L-C district will be allowed to vote for no more than two school board candidates, while the top four vote-getters will advance to the April 6 general election. Charles Froelich is seeking another two-year term to the County Board in District 8, which includes Ward 1 in the town of Luxemburg and Ward 3 in the town of Montpelier. He is being challenged by former county Sheriff Lee C. Ledvina and polka musician Gordon A. Reckelberg. The top two vote-getters advance to the spring general election. And in April, we get to do it again. To vote, you have to be registered in most municipalities. This can be done at the polls. Make sure you bring two forms of identification with your correct address on it. Polls open at 7 a.m. in most locations and close at 8 p.m. everywhere. Those opening at other times include the towns of Eaton, Glenmore, Green Bay, Holland, Humboldt and New Denmark at 9 a.m., the towns of Morrison and Pittsfield at 8 a.m. and the village of Denmark at 8 a.m. Kevin Boneske of the Luxemburg News contributed to this report.
