Wisconsin’s tight race for governor is putting Republican Gov. Scott Walker on the defensive about his record on education, roads and health care.
Meanwhile, his Democratic challenger Tony Evers faces accusations that he mismanaged his duties as the state schools chief.

The argument from Walker supporters made on the airwaves so far focuses on Evers’ job as state superintendent the past nine years.
