Mayor Broderson wins big in Muscatine [View all]

Well after all that to-do about removing the mayor, she won big last night.
Two of the council members who sought to oust her are gone now.

With 100 percent of precincts reporting, Muscatine Mayor Diana Broderson has been reelected with 2,478 votes (60%) to challenger Charlie Harper's 1,666 votes (40%).

The two council members who were up for reelection have been voted out. Michael Rehwaldt (188) lost to Osmond Malcom (481) in the second ward and Scott Natvig lost a three way race for alderman at large to Kelcey Brackett.

If that city manager down there had an ounce of brains he would submit his resignation this morning. Most likely instead he will sue the city.
