Contested Watersmeet county clerk election case
A political contest challenges Johnston for county clerk, alleging illegal registration, numerous illegal Watersmeet votes, and improper refreshments at the polls. Testimony cites 27 Wisconsin workers urged to vote, saloon open, and promises of pay for travel, with questions about who financed drinks. The case argues the outcome may be tainted though evidence of vote corruption is contested.
