Delavan, WI – Nick Polce, US Army Green Beret veteran, husband and father, today announced he is suspending his campaign for Lieutenant Governor of Wisconsin to run for the Wisconsin State Senate, representing the community he calls home.
“After much prayer and reflection with my family and friends, I believe that I can best serve the people of Wisconsin by standing alongside my neighbors right here at home,” Polce said. “My time as a Green Beret taught me that true leadership means walking beside the people you serve, listening to their concerns, and never leaving anyone behind. While I’m deeply grateful for the overwhelming support I’ve received across our state, I’ve heard the voices in my own community who just want someone to truly fight for them and their future.”
Polce emphasized that this decision comes from a deep sense of duty to serve where he can provide the most impact for the next generation. This sense of duty has guided every chapter of his life from his military service to working with the youth in the community to his decision to run for public office.
“Every family in this district deserves to be seen, heard, and valued,” Polce said. “Our communities flourish when government officials listen to those they serve, protect the vulnerable, and then trust families and neighbors to care for one another. I’m committed to being a careful steward of the resources entrusted to us, protecting Wisconsinites, standing shoulder-to-shoulder with the brave men and women who keep our communities safe, and championing policies that genuinely lighten the load for hardworking families who are doing everything they can to build a better future for their children.”
“Senator Nass distinguished himself as a principled fighter for taxpayers and against government overreach,” Polce said. “I’m profoundly grateful for Steve’s years of dedicated service and his heartfelt advocacy for the hardworking families in this district. I’m honored to continue that same mission. Every family deserves someone who will truly listen to their struggles, who will fight tirelessly on their behalf, and who will treat everyone with dignity and fairness. That’s the promise I make to you, and that’s exactly what I intend to deliver.”
“The families in this district deserve leadership that genuinely cares, that leads with compassion, and that delivers real, meaningful results that improve their daily lives,” Polce added. “I will be an unwavering voice for the values that strengthen and unite our communities, and a tireless advocate for the people who are the heart and soul of our state—the families who work hard, sacrifice for their children, and never give up hope for a better tomorrow.”
