MADISON, Wis. (AP) First it was Joe Biden who endorsed a pair of Wisconsin school district referendum votes that are on Tuesdays ballot. Now Bernie Sanders is doing the same.
Biden, the former vice president and Democratic presidential front-runner, announced on Tuesday that he was in support of referendums in Milwaukee and Racine. Sanders, a senator from Vermont, added his backing on Thursday.
The Milwaukee referendum would cost taxpayers $87 million, and the one in Racine comes with a $1 billion price tag. They are among more than 40 districts across the state seeking more than $1.6 billion in referendums in Tuesdays election.
Milwaukees money would go toward operational expenses, including staff and programming. Racines is for the renovation and construction of buildings.
