Evers deserves a second term

The Wisconsin State Journal:

Four years ago the State Journal editorial board worried that Tony Evers would "be a spokesman for the status quo" if elected state superintendent of schools.

Boy, were we wrong.

Evers has distinguished himself during these hyper-partisan times as a leader who cares more about results for Wisconsin schools and students than he does politics or publicity.

The State Journal strongly endorses his re-election April 2.

Like most of the educational establishment, Evers opposed Republican Gov. Scott Walker's big cut in state aid to public schools coupled with strict limits on collective bargaining for teachers.
