Doyle, Lautz election parties start off low-key
A few dozen supporters of Dem Steve Doyle gathered in the back room of the Seven Bridges restaurant in Onalaska after polls closed Tuesday evening.
The event was low-key with guests chatting around tables and a small TV in the corner of the room turned off for the time being. There were snacks along the wall and a few campaign signs, while the Onalaska Lions Club appeared to be meeting in the next room over.
At the John Lautz party in West Salem, the Republican's supporters have gathered at the Wesview Inn with a number of backers around the bar.
A pair of TVs in the corner of the room was turned on with a projector showing a power point slide show of Lautz, his family and some of his appearances on the campaign trail.
