Milwaukee—Gwen Connolly today announced the endorsement of dozens of community leaders in her race for Milwaukee County Circuit Court Branch 44, further demonstrating a broad base of support across the entire county. Connolly has previously announced the endorsement of a majority of Mayors and Village Presidents in Milwaukee County, as well as hundreds of judges and attorneys, including many leaders working to serve the poor.
