Did you know that we have a very important election coming up April 7? I didn’t until recently. I recommend that you to vote for Judge James Daley for the Wisconsin Supreme Court.

Judge Daley is a decorated combat veteran who served as a Marine in Vietnam, where he was awarded the Bronze Star with “V” Device for Valor and the Purple Heart. He joined the Wisconsin Army National Guard in 1974 as an infantry sergeant and was later commissioned. He held various command positions, including Commander of the 32nd Infantry Brigade, and retired as a Brigadier General after 36 years of service.

He received his law degree from Marquette University, was elected three times as Rock County District Attorney, and was appointed and then reelected five times as Rock County Circuit Court Judge. During his 26 years on the bench, Judge Daley has handled all types of cases, from civil and family to juvenile and criminal, and has sentenced more than 30,000 criminals.

Judge Daley as a veterans’ advocate helped implement Wisconsin’s first regional Veterans Diversion Court. He has a history of being tough on crime and is a friend of law enforcement. Judge Daley is endorsed by 48 county sheriffs. Judge Daley is not an activist judge and will always stand up for and protect the citizens of our state, and he will always rule in a manner that is just and in accordance with the rule of law and the Constitution.

Please vote for Judge James Daley on April 7.
