Papa Smurf won’t be in the running when the Dodge County canvass board meets next week to determine the winner of the County’s 29th supervisory district seat.

The patriarch of the Smurf clan was among four write-in candidates penciled in Tuesday during the spring election for the 29th District race.

There were no candidates listed on the ballot, however, County Clerk Karen Gibson said that 15 write-in votes were cast for the position.

“Eleven of the 15 ovals were filled in with no name written on the line below.

However, four write-in votes did have names that each received one vote each: Dean Fuller, Duwayne Schelter, Scott Fairbank and, of course, Papa Smurf,” Gibson said.

While Papa Smurf was crossed off the list, Gibson sent letters to Fuller, Schelter and Fairbank, inviting them to participate in the canvass board meeting at 8:30 a.m. Monday, April 7, in the county clerk’s office, where a winner will be chosen by lot and certified.

The supervisory seat in the 29th District has remained vacant since supervisor Deborah Rathermel of Waupun stepped down before the end of her two-year term.

The seat represents the First and Third Wards in the city of Waupun.

I bet Gargamel has something to do with this!! I didn't even know the Smurfs lived in Wisconson. Maybe they moved there after the villiage was bombed by Unisef a couple years ago??

As a Wisconsin native, this does not surprise me. They moved here, like was said, after Unicef destroyed their village. They have found that while the climate here is quite harsh, their white and blue covering offers better camoflage against predators. Like, for example, Gargamel. We had hoped to keep their new location secret for as long as possible, however it appears that some nimrod blew it.
