Achievement Discussion Gone Missing in Wisconsin Superintendent Election
Two state superintendent candidates publicly called each other liars on Friday — days before the two are set to face each other in a three-way primary with incumbent Tony Evers.
It was the latest twist — punctuated by a Democratic lawmaker crashing a news conference — in an increasingly turbulent race.
At the news conference, candidate John Humphries called opponent Lowell Holtz “a liar” who is falsely blaming unnamed business leaders for Holtz’s proposal for one of them to get out of the race in exchange for a six-figure, taxpayer-funded job should the other win.
Holtz later fired back, calling the Friday event a “three-ring circus” orchestrated by Humphries.
