Former Wisconsin Governor Tony Earl Endorses Matt Flynn for 2018 Gubernatorial Race

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Matt Flynn today earned the endorsement of former Wisconsin Governor Tony Earl.

“I have known Matt Flynn for 40 years. He will be a strong and effective governor,” said Earl. “I am very happy to endorse him and I look forward to voting for him this year.”

Earl served as governor from 1983 to 1987. A former prosecutor, he had previously served as Secretary of the Department of Administration and Secretary of the Department of Natural Resources under Governor Patrick Lucey. Before that he served as a member of the State Assembly for northern Wisconsin.

“I am very proud to have Governor Earl’s support today,” said Flynn. “Wisconsin has a tradition of clean, honest government going back to Robert La Follette. Tony Earl was a stalwart against corruption during his term. Scott Walker has soiled our record. As governor, I will restore clean, honest government in Wisconsin.”
