Abolished La Crosse Ward Constable Job Ends in 1969
A 1969 end to La Crosse ward constables followed a tie vote count at Emerson School and cautious reflections by police officials. The article notes only seven of 21 wards retain constables, few active, with most duties absorbed by trained police. Olson and Multerer’s tie vote prompted the final abolition.
