April 1, 2022 – West Bend, WI – The spring election is on Tuesday, April 5, 2022. If you don’t like the way things have been going since Biden became POTUS, then you better vote conservative and you better not vote for school board incumbents.
In the West Bend School District, lack of support for teachers regarding discipline in the classrooms has been a well-known issue for quite some time. The teachers send the disruptive students to the principal’s office only to have the principal send the students right back to the classroom with no repercussions.
Consequently, many substitute teachers won’t come back.
John Donaldson and Melanie Ehrgott have a passion for fixing that issue in the schools, and they certainly couldn’t do any worse than the incumbents who appear to have done nothing. If you are concerned about your taxes continuously increasing, especially if our incumbents end up trying to add a referendum to a future ballot for a new school for Jackson, then vote for John and Melanie who are confident facility changes for Jackson can be done without raising taxes if we follow the advice of the volunteer task force. Moreover, if you want voices that represent the community vote for John and Melanie.
In the Slinger School District, all you need to know is that the incumbents brag about being endorsed by the teachers’ union to appreciate the urgency to vote ONLY for Bill Brewer who doesn’t have that endorsement.
For Washington County Supervisors, we have two candidates that need a seat at the table: Marietta Bailey of District 2 and Linda Gurath of District 5, if you want to keep a conservative county board.
Finally, if you cherish our U.S. Constitution, PLEASE vote for Judge Maria Lazar for Wisconsin Court of Appeals.
