Consider this a done deal

A press release by CRG Walworth says they have enough signatures to put a measure reducing the size of the County Board from 25 to 11 next April. Given the success of these measures in other counties this month, the Walworth County Board members should start making plans for more than half of them no longer having seats. Walworth County is about as Republican as they come and should have no trouble passing this one.

Question is of course, with the county being so Republicans, and with Republican supposedly being the part of smaller government, why didn't the board do this themselves a long time ago?
