500+ Wisconsinites Endorse Leah for Senate

Homegrown Wisconsin momentum builds to send a proven conservative to DC

By - Mar 22nd, 2018 11:28 am

Brookfield, Wis. — More than 500 Wisconsinites have publicly endorsed conservative Leah Vukmir for U.S. Senate, her campaign announced on Thursday.

“I am truly humbled by the overwhelming support I am receiving from grassroots conservatives all across Wisconsin,” Leah said. “Wisconsinites know how Republican tax cuts and record-low unemployment have made a real positive difference in their lives, and they are getting behind my campaign because they want someone they can trust to defend the unborn, strengthen border security and protect our constitutional rights.”

Leah’s growing list of homegrown endorsements signals the increasing support Badger State residents have for her campaign. From Ladysmith to Oconomowoc, law enforcement officials, small business owners, conservative activists and local elected officials are overwhelmingly backing Leah.

State Reps. James Edming, R–Glen Flora, Jeffrey Mursau, R–Crivitz, Ron Tusler, R–Harrison, and Tyler Vorpagel, R–Plymouth, are new endorsers, as well as Ozaukee County Sheriff Jim Johnson and Green County District Attorney Craig Nolen.
