On the political front it appears there will be no locally contested races in the state Senate or the Assembly in the Washington County area this November.
Half of the senate seats are up for election as are all the seats in the Wisconsin Assembly.
Locally, Duey Stroebel (R-Saukville) in the state Senate does not have an opponent.
In the Assembly, Bob Gannon (R-Slinger), Jesse Kremer (R-Kewaskum), Dan Knodl (R-Germantown) and Janel Brandtjen (R-Menomonee Falls) do not have opponents.
Assembly Rep. Robert Brooks (R-Saukville) has a college student from Cedarburg running against him as an independent.
The filing deadline was June 1, and challenges to the nomination papers were due within 72 hours, which means as of 5 p.m. Monday the local races were set.
