August 27, 2011 - 8:48pm
LA CROSSE, Wisconsin (WXOW) - Jennifer Shilling is now officially the state senator for District 32.
She was sworn in Saturday morning after winning a recall election against Dan Kapanke earlier this month.
Shilling was sworn in by Wisconsin's Chief Supreme Court Justice and told a room full of spectators she feels a bit like a student "switching schools in the middle of the year."
The new senator says she's excited about the opportunities and responsibilities that title brings, although Shilling says she is sad to leave her position in the Assembly.
