OASD referendum passes, Hintz (D) tops Doemel (R) for county executive: Tuesday's election results

OSHKOSH – The district can breathe a sigh of relief.

It was a very close call, but Oshkosh Area School District can go forward with the latest phase of its infrastructure plan after a $197.8 million facilities referendum was narrowly passed following Tuesday's spring election.

Faced with some very vocal opposition, the referendum, which seeks $197.8 million in public funding for the second phase of the district’s four-phase facilities plan, garnered 13,958 "yes" votes as opposed to 13,487 "no" votes.....

The referendum vote was the biggest result coming out of an election that also marked former Assembly Minority leader Gordon Hintz's successful return to public life when he unseated incumbent Jon Doemel in the race for Winnebago County executive.

Hintz tallied 30,832 votes to Doemel's 27,374, ending Doemel's one-term stint in office.
