Joe Czarnezki, Genuine Public Servant, Running For Milwaukee County Clerk

I got to know Joe Czarnezki when we both worked in the John Norquist administration, and now he's running for Milwaukee County Clerk in Tuesday's primary on the Democratic Party ticket.

Joe has served as a State Representative and State Senator, and held several key positions in Milwaukee City Hall, including head of the Fire and Police Commission, and later, the budget office.

I'm voting for Joe on Tuesday because he's just what we taxpayers need in County government - - honesty, decency, skill, and decades of service.

It's also important that he's the only candidate on the ballot not already in County government - - so he offers us the best of both worlds: independence and experience.

Barring a successful write-in candidacy, the winner of Tuesday's Democratic primary will be come the next County Clerk because the GOP did not field a candidate.

County government will be much-improved with Joe Czarnezki elected as County Clerk.
