Former-Mayor Christophe Jenkins Endorses Bernie Newman for WI

My fellow West Benders,

An important election is coming up on Tuesday, August 11, when voters will choose the nominee for our representative in the State Assembly. It is often a thankless job—one that requires someone with the fortitude and conviction to stand up for constituents and challenge the status quo in Madison. I am proud to say that we have such a candidate in Bernie Newman.

My family and I have had the pleasure of knowing Bernie and his family for more than two decades. When I stepped down as President of Common Sense Citizens of Washington County, Bernie stepped up to help. When I needed a strong appointment to the local Plan Commission, Bernie answered the call. And when my children were selling fundraiser treats, Bernie was always willing to lend his support!

Our representatives in Madison face the important responsibility of reflecting the values of our communities while making decisions on state spending, regulations, and public policy. That responsibility demands someone who understands the concerns of everyday citizens and is willing to put principle ahead of politics.

Bernie Newman is that person. He is a husband, a father, and a man of strong morals and convictions. Most importantly, he is someone who will choose what is right over what is politically convenient.

I encourage you to join me in voting for Bernie Newman for State Assembly, District 58, on August 11.

Former-Mayor of West Bend
Current West Bend School Board Member

Fathers play an important and sacred role in raising children. As providers, protectors, and leaders of their families, they help shape the lives of the next generation. I am blessed to be the father of seven children and grateful for the opportunity to be there for them every day. Happy Father's Day to all the dads who serve their families with love and dedication.
