Today is the day. Go vote! As folks head to the polls today I’d like to thank the volunteers who traveled the state with me, put up signs, made calls and helped spread our message. Your hard work and dedication has been inspiring!

Wisconsin voters wanted, and their elected representatives passed, a Voter ID requirement. Special interests tried to overturn it. They failed. The law is Constitutional. Your vote is protected. Remember to vote on Tuesday. And bring your ID!

My prayers are with Milwaukee Police Department & the families of Officer Charles Irvine Jr. and the other officer injured tonight. May the safety and wellness of the men and women in blue be in our prayers every day, as we realize the sacrifices they and their families make.

Staff Update: In these highly partisan times, when Dems and GOPers actually agree on something, you take notice. That’s why it is remarkable that Brad Schimel has such widespread support from Republicans, Democrats and Independents all across Wisconsin. He’s OUR Attorney General.

“He enjoys bipartisan support from sheriffs and district attorneys across the state. resume is considerably more substantial and applicable to the job than that of his opponent. Schimel is the best and most experienced choice for attorney general in next Tuesday’s vote."

CBS58 in Milwaukee has now also pulled the commercial from out-of-state allies of Josh Kaul. That ad contains demonstrable lies. Wisconsin voters deserve an honest dialogue, not that kind of garbage from Washington, D.C.

#OurAG has spent his career as a successful prosecutor in Wisconsin, taking a victim-centered approach in the pursuit of justice. His opponent has never prosecuted a single case in Wisconsin. Not one. Ever.

We won’t forget those who lost their lives 17 years ago in the horrific terrorist attacks, and are forever grateful to the men and women of law enforcement, firefighters, first responders, and our armed forces who answered the call of duty on 9/11 and the days that followed.

Our campaign is on a roll. Why have 12 DEMOCRATIC sheriffs endorsed me, a Republican? Well, this letter to my fellow Wisconsinites provides the answer. In it I explain my priorities at DOJ and what inspires me to keep fighting to keep families safe.

For more than 20 years, thousands of untested sexual assault kits were in storage rooms in hundreds of police departments & hospitals across Wisconsin. Schimel is only AG to ever test ANY kits. His leadership solves problems, makes us safer. #wisvotedebate #OurAG.

Brad Schimel showed why he's Law Enforcement's choice in this race & why even 20 elected Democrats have endorsed him. Josh Kaul knows his talking points, but little else. He doesn't know, because he hasn't done it. Brad Schimel has been an innovative public safety leader and 1/2.
