Wisconsin Votes To Leave Iraq

Under a 1911 law, the citizens in 30 some towns and cities in Wisconsin voted to remove troops from Iraq.

(The Other WaPo)Voters in the majority of 32 Wisconsin towns with local referendums on the Iraq war voted Tuesday to bring the troops home.

A call to withdraw from Iraq by the end of the year passed overwhelmingly in the liberal Milwaukee suburb of Shorewood, while in conservative Watertown, where the City Council had opposed having the referendum, it was voted down by 75 percent.
