Roggensack Rolls in Menomonee Falls, State

Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Pat Roggensack of Madison was a clear victor in Menomonee Falls and across the state after polls closed Tuesday night. 

Roggensack and Marquette University law professor Ed Fallone of Whitefish Bay will square off in the April 2 election for the high court after advancing Tuesday. 

In Menomonee Falls, Roggensack ran away with the election collecting 85.4 percent of the vote, or 3,108 total votes. Fallone finished in a distant second with 11.4 percent of the vote, or a total of 415 votes. Vince Megna, who was eliminated from the race, carved out 3.2 percent of the Falls vote, or 116 total votes. 

It was a low turnout election, and just 14.6 percent of registered voters in Falls headed to the polls on Tuesday.

Roggensack and Fallone replicated their success in Menomonee Falls at the state level as well. With more than half of the vote counted statewide as of 9:30 p.m., Roggensack captured more than 60 percent of the ballots cast, while Fallone had 29 percent, according to Patch's media partners at WISN 12.
