Transcending the Politics of Division

Join former State Senator Dale Schultz, as he provides reflection on the state of politics nationally in Wisconsin and about the formation of United Wisconsin, an unincorporated association that one day may be a fusion political party, which he co-chairs. Also speaking will be former Dane County Sheriff Dave Mahoney, who co-chairs United Wisconsin. Jeff Mandell, General Counsel and President of Law Forward, will discuss fusion voting and how it works. 

United Wisconsin's Background: A group of voters have formed United Wisconsin, an unincorporated association that one day may be a fusion political party.  A lawsuit has been filed challenging Wisconsin's ban on fusion voting, arguing it violates the state constitution. United Wisconsin believes that restoring fusion voting will encourage more compromise and cooperation in our politics. Our platform centers on values that have built Wisconsin: rule of law, public education small business and natural resources.
