An election? Madison will go on spring break instead (AP)

Eli Judge is running for city council but the University of Wisconsin-Madison residence halls and fraternities heâ??d represent will be mostly empty on election day.

Thatâ??s because, for the first time in recent memory, the April 3 spring election coincides with UW-Madison spring break. Thatâ??s forced Judge, a sophomore, to knock on doors for weeks urging students to vote early.
