Superintendent: Not Our Calls

Heard those automated campaign calls? Irritated a little? Some have been plenty annoyed by calls asking for a yes vote on a pro-school measure in March. Apparently some technical screw-up involving Century Tel. But also something that's led to irritated calls to La Crosse schools superintendent Jerry Kembers office. He says, the calls have nothing to do with an upcoming referendum. The calls apparently originate from Toledo, Ohio. Originally placed on behalf of a school issue in that district in advance of a ballot measure this past spring.
