RACINE — The Judge Lisa Neubauer for Justice campaign today released fundraising numbers from the second half of 2018, with more than $325,000 raised in the six-month period, and more than $570,000 on hand in Judge Neubauer’s campaign account as of January 1, 2019. The campaign now has more than 920 donors, and has more than twice as much on hand as her opponent.
“This is a massive show of support for Judge Neubauer’s campaign,” said Tyler Hendricks, campaign manager. “Judge Neubauer is in a very strong, unprecedented position, and her campaign has raised more than any non-incumbent at this stage of the campaign. More than 300 judges are endorsing Judge Neubauer, and she has tremendous support from a broad, bipartisan group of 23 sheriffs and 46 district attorneys. She is in the best possible position to win in April.”
“We have a clear message—judges should be fair, impartial, independent, and nonpolitical—and that’s what the voters of Wisconsin want,” said Senior Consultant Scott Spector. “It’s a stark contrast with Judge Neubauer’s opponent, who has a deeply partisan history and an ideological agenda, and a very narrow base of support. We’ve put together the strong team we need to win and Wisconsin will be better off when Judge Neubauer sits on the Supreme Court.”
