In-Person Absentee Voting Now Underway At City Hall — Including For Alderman

The April 2 election is approaching quickly, and you can now fill out a ballot at City Hall.

In-person absentee voting continues through Friday, March 29, and if you think you won’t be able to make it to the polls on election day, I encourage you to stop by and vote early.

Check out the South Milwaukee District 4 ballot here. The other city ballots can also be found on the South Milwaukee website.

Of course, alderman is one of the races up for election this spring, and I humbly ask for your vote. I’ve proudly served the Fourth District for four years, and I look forward to another term, with your help.

I encourage you to visit my campaign website to learn more about my campaign and my record. Thanks for your support!

Why I’m Running For A Third Term

I’m seeking a third term as Fourth District alderman, and I humbly ask for your support.

Why? Because there is so much work left to do … and I am as energized as ever to do it.

  • I am proud of what we’ve done to help keep taxes and spending increases low, supporting sensible and conservative budgets each of my three-plus years in office. But budgeting won’t get any easier in coming years. And I look forward to doing what I can to preserve our first-class city services while being a trusted steward of taxpayer dollars.
  • I am proud of the investments we’ve made in our infrastructure, including significant investments in flood-control and road projects in the Fourth District. But there’s more work to do and more investments to make. And I’ll support those efforts.
  • I am proud of what I’ve done to spur downtown development, especially through the South Milwaukee Downtown Market. But we have a long ways to go in bringing new life back to our city center. And I want to be part of that solution.
  • I am proud of what I’ve done to improve resident communications, especially through the launch and growth of South Milwaukee Blog and my support of the redesign of the city’s new website. But we can do better. And I am as committed as ever to making that happen.
  • I am proud of the day-to-day constituent support I provide, helping residents get solutions for their problems and standing up for their needs at City Hall. But those needs are always there. And I look forward to doing my part.

So we’ve made progress. But we need to push harder, to continue to embrace positive change and position South Milwaukee for success in the years ahead. We can’t stand still. We must embrace new ideas and new approaches, now more than ever.

That’s why I’m running for alderman next April. And I thank you for your support.
