  • RPW Review and 2020 Strategy Report
    20/20 2020 RPW 2018 REview 2 MESSAGE FROM THE COMMITTEE As the old adage goes, hindsight is 20/20. It’s always easy to look back and see clearly mistakes and successes. It’s much harder to look into the future and have the same clarity. The Republican Party of Wisconsin is at a crossroads – we’ve reached an intersection where we have to take what we learned in the 2018 cycle and use that to chart our path forward. We have to take our 20/20 hindsight and turn it into a vision for 2020. As Republicans, we often look to business as a Congressional district Party leaders held conference model for achieving effi ciency and quality while calls and meetings with county parties and activists. eliminating waste.

  • Monday Morning Review June 20, 2016 State Assembly Races
    Monday Morning Review June 20, 2016 State Assembly Races Coming Into Focus In Wisconsin, June 1st is the day that candidates running in the fall election are required to submit the required number of signatures from voters in their district so they can get on the ballot, first for the August Primary and then for the General Election on November 8, 2016. In Madison, all four campaign committees working to elect and reelect candidates host “meet the candidate” events and it is the most optimistic day of the year, with those in the majority arguing they are going to gain seats in November, and those in the minority touting the quality of their challenger candidates (predicting they will be measuring for curtains in their new and bigger offices on the morning of November 9 as they make plans to take back the majority in January 2017). In the state assembly, all 99 seats will be voted on in November. The GOP currently holds the majority in the lower house and will be defending 63 of the 99 seats this fall. One of the bigger surprises in the state assembly was that current State Representative Warren Petryk (R-Eleva) has no opponent in 2016, precisely because he is in a 50/50 district that always faces stiff competition. This is a big deal for the GOP because it is one less seat that they will have to keep an eye on. Why no opponent for Petryk? That is likely due to a combination of three things: 1) he had over $100,000 in the bank already to use for his reelection; 2) he works extremely hard during campaign time, and; 3) he is most likely one of the nicest people who currently serve in either house of the legislature.
