MILWAUKEE - The newly elected chair of the Democratic Party of Wisconsin is promising to pull the party together after big defeats in the governor's race and both chambers of the Legislature.
Sheboygan businesswoman and community activist Martha Laning was easily elected as chair of the state's Democratic Party on Saturday, despite intense competition for the job.
Laning won 53 percent of the vote from the more than 1,300 delegates who cast ballots during the state convention in Milwaukee. Current chairman Mike Tate wasn't seeking another term.
