The Milwaukee Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) are declaring a win for Milwaukee’s working class after member Alex Brower won the race for the open District 3 seat on the Common Council Tuesday.

Milwaukee DSA supported Brower’s candidacy from the start. We look forward to supporting Brower’s work at City Hall. Although we recognize that his election alone will not bring about all the changes needed for a just Milwaukee, we will continue working with Councilmember-Elect Brower and the thousands of people who volunteered with the campaign and voted for him to build a mass movement capable of doing so.

“We are beyond excited to welcome Alex Brower into the great Sewer Socialist tradition that we hold in Milwaukee,” said Pamela Westphal, DSA leader. “With high voter turnout in Milwaukee County, this should signal to the Democratic Party that the working class is hungry for bold leadership and transformative change in local government.”

Brower’s win is the latest sign that people in Milwaukee and beyond are tired of the status quo and ready for true democracy, robust public services and democratic socialism.

Milwaukee DSA is Milwaukee’s largest socialist organization fighting for a democratic economy, a just society, and a sustainable environment. Join today at dsausa.org/join.
