April 4 Election Endorsements

These are my endorsements for the April 4 elections. Learn more about how to vote here.

In each case, I’ve made endorsement decisions based on commitment to City-County collaboration in solving what I see as our toughest challenges—pollution, housing affordability, and equal opportunity—and to building a truly progressive Madison and Dane County where everyone can thrive.

I have not made an endorsement in every race—I’m one human person, and I’ve only endorsed where I have been able to get to high confidence.

Supreme Court of Wisconsin: Janet Protasiewicz

And finally—I am not sure how many followers I have in Sheboygan, but I want to give a special shout-out to Kay Robbins, my mother-in-law, who is running for re-election to the Sheboygan school board. A vote for her is a vote for a time-tested commitment to education, inclusion, and celebration of the diversity that comprises that fine city.
