Leah Topples 200+ Grassroots Endorsements

Momentum behind Leah for Senate keeps building into 2018

Brookfield, Wis. — Nurse and U.S. Senate candidate Leah Vukmir continues to build her Wisconsin support. She announced Thursday that she now has more than 200 grassroots endorsements, signaling the continued momentum behind her campaign to unseat Tammy Baldwin.

“Grassroots supporters have been with us for every battle that has moved Wisconsin in a conservative direction since Governor Walker was elected in 2010,” Leah said. “I am honored to have their continued support as I take the Wisconsin Way to Washington.”

Leah’s new endorsements include local elected officials, educators, college students, veterans, health care professionals and business leaders from Hudson to Neenah, Milwaukee to Dodgeville.

Leah previously announced 100+ endorsers. She released a list of prominent members of her finance committee, which is viewable here. She also announced the members of her campaign steering committee, which can be found here.

Leah Vukmir is a nurse, military mom and conservative with a proven record of reform who is running to bring the Wisconsin Way to Washington. She currently serves as a state senator from Brookfield.
