August 1, 2026 – West Bend, Wi – Bernie Newman is running for Assembly District 58. He’ll be a respectful, responsible Representative for all of us.

Bernie is polite towards all. Unlike some other candidates running, Bernie won’t shout down a fellow resident nor vote to censor anyone who disagrees with him. Civility is needed from our public servants.
Bernie has the right stand on all key issues. He is for strong borders, the Constitution, rule of law, and supporting our police and firefighters. Bernie is tough on crime. Safe communities make people want to live, work, and raise a family here.
He will strengthen election integrity. Non-U.S.-citizens should not be voting in our elections. Polls shows the vast majority of Americans agree. We’re losing our elections and will lose our wonderful Constitutional republic and all our rights and freedoms forever. Is that what you want? I don’t.
Bernie supports excellent schools. He’ll find ways to ensure high-quality instruction for our kids, while keeping it affordable. Bernie will help ensure boys and men compete in their own sports, not in girls’ or women’s sports. This also means keeping boys and men out of girls’ and women’s bathrooms and locker rooms.
Bernie will end irresponsible state spending. Evers and the legislature sacked us with an out-of-control budget 15% higher than previously. That’s fiscal insanity, forking over our money to the lobbyists’ wants.
Bernie is against any more water-guzzling, electricity-devouring, “data centers,” which wreck our beautiful outdoors. What are they for – central bank digital currency (CBDC), so the government can track us and keep us from buying gas, food, medicine, etc., if we don’t agree with their Extreme-Left policies? Bernie is an outdoorsman and hunter, so he won’t let data centers ruin any more of our farm/recreation land.
Vote Bernie Newman for Assembly District 58 now or on August 11.
Very sincerely,
Bart Williams

*Trolling: a troll is a person who sows discord on the Internet by starting arguments or upsetting people, by posting inflammatory,[1] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community (such as a newsgroup, forum, chat room, or blog) with the intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[2] or of otherwise disrupting normal, on-topic discussion,[3] often for the troll’s amusement.
