In Waukesha County's two largest cities, unabashed Democrats Mike Hallquist and Alicia Halvensleben are each running for mayor. A special feature story on the purpling of the former GOP stronghold.
Exciting good news. Waukesha the city has certainly had progressive politicians in the past, including mayor, but Brookfield moving leftward would be a sea change. Hopefully Hallquist can win. And of course Halvensleben, too.
I met Alicia Halvensleben at a event for Democratic Socialist Francesca Hong in Waukesha. As I tried to explain to Fran my concerns about single family homes being turned into rentals, Fran tried to push back and mention concerns she's heard from the landlord side. Alicia chimed in against the idea of single family homes every being rented. That's when I knew Alicia was a real one. Godspeed
I can’t say in words how excited I would be for Terry Dittrich to see both cities go blue

Thanks for this. This report and the work that Waukesha Resist is doing makes me have some hope.
