Rebecca F. Dallet

I’ve spent more than twenty years in our Wisconsin court rooms fighting to ensure justice for the people of our state. Over the past two decades, I’ve gained the experience we need, right now and in this moment, to protect the values we share. I know the challenges and the problems Wisconsin families face. I have spent my career, first as a prosecutor, and now as a judge, working to make our community safer.

I’ve overseen both civil and criminal courts—making tough decisions to send violent criminals away, and rendered compassionate verdicts to give people a second chance.

In our courts, I see the challenges our neighbors face every day: I see moms like me working two jobs, but still not able to make ends meet. I see families losing their homes when a family member gets sick and the medical bills stack up. I see victims of violent crime, especially in our poorest neighborhoods, struggling to find a way as guns, drugs, and gangs devastate their community. And I see neighbors trying to get their lives back on track, but stuck in a criminal justice system that needs reform.

Judges are challenged every single day: to weigh the facts, examine the evidence and deliver a decision. And while there is so much at stake here in Wisconsin, inexperience is not an option if we want to protect our values at the highest level.

I am prepared to fight and represent our values on day one. I’m excited to be on this journey, and look forward to speaking with you soon.

Michael Screnock

Sauk County Circuit Court Judge Michael Screnock was born and raised in Wisconsin.

Having spent his earliest years in Marquette County, where his father served as district attorney, the family moved to his mother’s hometown of Baraboo in Sauk County when he was five years old. After graduating from Baraboo High School, Judge Screnock chose to attend the University of Wisconsin-Madison where he was an active member of the UW Marching Band tuba section. He met his wife, Karen from Brookfield, Wisconsin, on the UW campus and they were married the summer before he graduated with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics in 1990. Judge Screnock next attended Eastern College (now University) and received his MBA with an emphasis in Urban Economic Development in 1992. Their oldest child was born during graduate school.

Their growing family returned to Wisconsin where Michael sought ways to use his training and talents to serve the public. He received an opportunity to serve another Sauk County community by running the City of Reedsburg’s community development program. Much of this work focused on assisting low income and first-time homeowners make necessary home repairs. He then served as Reedsburg’s full time building inspector and then its finance director. The family left Sauk County so Michael could serve the Chequamegon Bay region in northern Wisconsin – first as Washburn’s city administrator and then as Ashland’s finance director. During this time he worked with many local leaders on strategies to position the entire region for success in the 21st century.

After nearly twelve years serving in local government, and after thoughtful deliberation with his family, Michael decided to return to the University of Wisconsin-Madison to attend law school, where he earned his Juris Doctor degree in 2006.

Judge Screnock next sought a position with a law firm where he could build off of his local government experience and be positioned to work on cases that could have statewide impact. He accepted a position with the Michael Best & Friedrich law firm in its Madison office, where his expectations were realized. He worked on many complex cases as well, including defending Act 10. His work focused on civil litigation and administrative proceedings in a wide variety of subject areas, including real estate and land use disputes, governmental regulation, assessment and taxation, public utility regulation, environmental law, and election law. He worked on numerous cases before the Wisconsin Court of Appeals and Wisconsin Supreme Court. During this time, Judge Screnock also co-authored annual legal updates on Administrative Law topics for a Wisconsin State Bar publication.

In 2015, Judge Screnock was appointed by Governor Walker to a seat on the Sauk County Circuit Court, located in Baraboo. He counts it an honor and privilege to serve his hometown and surrounding communities in this capacity.  In 2016, he successfully ran unopposed to retain his seat on the circuit court.  During his time on the bench he has seen thousands of cases to their end. As one of three Sauk County judges, he handles every type of case, including juvenile cases, probate, small claims disputes, harassment injunctions, divorce and other family matters, traffic and other ordinance violations, contract and other civil disputes, civil commitments, and every manner of criminal case from disorderly conduct to first-degree intentional homicide. He also has had the pleasure of presiding over the Sauk County Adult Drug Court since its inception in January 2016.

In addition to his professional work, Judge Screnock has remained thoroughly engaged in volunteer community service. Throughout the years he has served as a scout leader, soccer coach, soccer referee, mock trial coach, and math team coach, as well as holding numerous positions within the local church. He also continues to enjoy playing the tuba, and has performed in community bands and small church ensembles.

Michael and Karen have three adult sons and one daughter-in-law, who all live in Wisconsin.

Referendum on Constitutional Amendment to Eliminate the Office of State Treasurer

Voters are being asked whether they favor eliminating the position of State Treasurer, created by the state constitution in 1848. “Over the past 20 years, most powers and duties of the state treasurer and the office of the state treasurer have been either eliminated or transferred to other state agencies,” as a Legislative Reference Bureau report on the amendment notes. “In the 1970s and 1980s, joint resolutions to eliminate the office were offered in almost every legislative session,” the report notes. Those who favor eliminating the position argue it is an anachronism with few powers left and should therefore be eliminated.

Those who oppose this referendum argue the position is needed as part of the state’s checks and balances and to restrain executive power. The LRB report notes that “the vast majority of states have a state treasurer that oversees revenue and finances, although the official title and specific functions of the position vary,” and opponents of the referendum point to this in arguing for keeping the position. For a complete discussion of the issues check the LRB report.

Theodore Lipscomb, Sr.

Supervisor Theodore Lipscomb, Sr., is known to work hard for his constituents and the community. He and his wife, Nicole, grew up in Milwaukee County’s First District and are proud to raise their three children there too. Lipscomb was first elected to the County Board of Supervisors in 2008, won re-election in 2012 and 2016, and has been elected twice by his peers to serve as Chairman of the Board.

Lipscomb has regularly secured important park and parkway investments, added new bus routes and opposed cuts to critical public services. He also authored legislation that protected the public transit system from privatization and profiteers. Lipscomb was a lead sponsor of the 2012 Ready to Work Initiative which resulted in over 500 Milwaukeeans being trained and placed in jobs with an average wage above $15. His leadership on workforce development was later replicated and co-opted by one of its earliest detractors.

Lipscomb works for the public interest, he has exposed sweetheart contracts and unauthorized pay for political appointees, and has fought for greater transparency in our government. Year after year, he has been one of the most active authors of budget amendments in order to ensure responsible and balanced budgets.

I am running for Milwaukee County’s District 7 because I believe that when we work together we can make Milwaukee a great place to live, work, and play.

As a long time resident of Milwaukee with 40+ years as a resident of the district, I have seen some of the not-so-positive changes that have occurred throughout the city. I want to be a part of a new generation of leaders to work on solving some of Milwaukee’s most pressing problems.

I’ve spent my career working for the Medical College of Wisconsin, one of Milwaukee County’s greatest institutions. As your county supervisor, I will apply my administrative background toward solving our greatest challenges and giving our community the representation we deserve.

Deanna Alexander

Deanna Alexander, an accountant and auditor, serves as County Supervisor in northwest Milwaukee County. She was re-elected for a second term on the non-partisan County Board in April 2016 and represents a district of over 53,000 people.

Widely credited for surviving and standing her ground in a sea of policymakers pushing toward socialism and unwise management of the County’s assets, Deanna played a key role in reforming the Milwaukee County Board by public supporting cutting the tax dollars spent in the County Board’s budget, even though it included more than a 50% reduction for her own salary and benefits.  Deanna accepted that salary reduction in April 2016.

Deanna demonstrated selfless courage and leadership by stepping forward as the whistleblower when fellow Supervisors tried to illegally negotiate contracts, ignoring state laws and putting the county at great risks for future lawsuits.

In 2013, she was named to a national “Top 10 Under 40 Future Leaders” list and spoke at CPAC St. Louis. She was also named a “Right Woman to Watch” by Charlie SykesRight Wisconsin, and in 2014 was named a finalist for the Iron Lady Award.  In 2015 she was recognized by the Milwaukee Police Association for leadership and named a “Hometown Hero” when she spoke up in support of law enforcement during times of protest and threats.

Deanna currently serves on Milwaukee County’s Intergovernmental Relations Committee, the Health & Human Needs Committee, and the Judiciary Committee.  Deanna has also served on Milwaukee County’s Parks, Energy & Environment Committee, on the Transportation, Public Works & Transit Committee, on the Finance, Personnel and Audit Committee, and has a reputation for maintaining good relationships with others, across branches of government or levels of government, both in the public sector and private sector.

Supervisor Alexander has held more than two dozen public listening sessions since joining Milwaukee’s legislative branch of government. She also chairs the Emergency Medical Services Council as part of her commitment to stand by public safety, and served from 2012 to 2016 on the Milwaukee Child Welfare Partnership Council.

Deanna has served as an enlisted field artillery soldier in the Wisconsin Army National Guard and is a member of the NRA. Deanna is a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Parkside and she has studied law and public administration at Regent University and tax law at the University of Denver. She is a member of the Wisconsin Institute of Certified Public Accountants and has worked as a small business owner, aiding local school administrators in navigating cumbersome government regulations. Deanna currently works for the State of Wisconsin as the Chief of Ongoing Services for the Department of Children and Families – Division of Milwaukee Child Protective Services, helping in oversight and administration for Wisconsin’s foster care resources.

Deanna lives in Milwaukee with her husband Philip.  They are proud parents of two daughters and hope to soon also open their home to children in need through foster care and adoption.

Sparkle Ashley

I was born and raised in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. I grew up on the northwest side of Milwaukee, and attended Keefe Avenue Elementary school where I was a member of student council and was part of the Girl Scouts of America. I attended Messmer High school, where I was class president, a member of The National Honor Society. I went on to receive my Bachelor’s Degree from Mount Mary University in 2010 in Behavioral Science and went on to get my Master’s degree in Social Work from Loyola University- Chicago in 2016. I married James Ashley in 2013 and I am a long time resident of the 18th district.

I have been committed to public service my entire life. I completed a special internship at Loyola University, in which I worked at St. Rose Youth and Family Services in Milwaukee. Over the course of this internship, I learned how to facilitate and manage groups, and assisted with advocacy work for teens who don’t understand mental illness. I worked for Milwaukee Mental Health associates as a supervisor for the Targeted Case management program serving adults with severe and persistent mental illness. I also founded an organization called Social Workers as Politicians or SWAP. SWAP was created to bridge the gap between social workers, and politics. Currently, I am the Director of Social Services at The Bridges of Milwaukee Rehab and Care center.

Right now, we have an entrenched incumbent who has failed to respond to the needs and wants of residents. We deserve better in Milwaukee, which is why I am running to be the next County Board Supervisor of the 18th District. I look forward to talking with neighbors and community leaders to find exciting and innovative ways to be a part of change that we can see. I thank you and look forward to earning your support.

    Ahhhh… felt so wonderful to cast my vote just now for The Honorable Judge Michael Screnock! Polls were pretty busy. One of the ‘reddest’ counties in the state, so I’m sure we’ll come through strong for Judge Screnock.

    @WashCoRepug, you sound nervous. The lines were around the block up north here on the shores of Lake Superior in beautiful Bayfield County. We always vote blue in large numbers and everybody is voting Dallet. She is our last hope to save democracy and freedom in Wisconsin. I was watching the waves crash on shore this morning as I passed the huge queues snaking around the block and thought, well, I guess that would constitute a BIG BLUE WAVE about to wash over the state. Sorry republicans. Your days of tyranny and corruption in the state are over.
    Next up…

Yet tour big fat guy that lost said” I don’t think there is anything else we could have done.” Sorry!
