Much to my delight, State Rep. Mark Honadel (R-South Milwaukee) has a viable Democratic challenger in the 21st Assembly District, in the form of Oak Creek Common Council President Tom Michalski. I recently had a chance to sit down and talk with Michalski about his campaign, and our conversation started with the one [...]

It appears my prayers have been answered, as State Rep. Mark Honadel (R-South Milwaukee) will have a Democratic challenger for the seat he occupies in the State Assembly. Honadel’s Democratic challenger is Thomas A. Michalski, who currently serves as the alderman for Oak Creek’s 6th District. I don’t know much about Mr. Michalski [...]

After what seems like an eternity of wrangling, it appears an interchange at Drexel Avenue and I-94 in Oak Creek will be built in 2012, and State Rep. Mark Honadel (R-South Milwaukee) is STOKED: “I am just stoked up to no end because it’s going to be good for the region,” he said. “The [...]

It appears State Senator Jeff Plale, who represents State Senate District 7, will have at least one Republican challenger in 2010, in the form of Milwaukee attorney Jess Ripp. Ripp’s campaign website (what little there is) is full of standard Republican talking points, so it’s safe to assume Ripp is firmly entrenched as [...]

After some speculation that he was interested in running, State Rep. Brett Davis (R-Oregon) has registered as a candidate for Lieutenant Governor. As a moderate Republican (hard to believe there is still such a thing), Davis might have a hard time gaining support from a Republican establishment that seems to have veered far [...]

Milwaukee County Supervisor Pat Jursik, who has previously suggested turning I-94 from the Milwaukee/Racine county line to the state line into a toll road to pay for the cost of redecking the Hoan Bridge, has made it clear she’s not interested in studying any alternatives to redecking the Hoan (emphasis mine):

While it’s obviously still very early in the race, Republican State Representative Mark Honadel of the 21st Assembly District will have at least one challenger for his seat in 2010. However, the lone challenger to register as a candidate isn’t a Democrat – it’s Republican Jason Scott Komorowski of Oak Creek. I’m attempting to [...]

In a press release issued yesterday, State Rep. Mark Honadel of South Milwaukee indicated he wants to amend the state budget to restore the Learnfare program. In justifying the amendment, here’s what Rep. Honadel said:

Earlier this week, I wrote about a rumor State Representative Mark Honadel might be retiring after his current term in office expires; however it appears that rumor is false, as Rep. Honadel himself explained:
It was brought to my attention that a rumor was published on this website saying that I may not run [...]

Two anonymous sources have indicated to me Rep. Mark Honadel of the 21st Assembly District will not run for reelection in 2010. While this rumor hasn’t been confirmed by Rep. Honadel, it would certainly throw an interesting wrinkle into the 2010 race in the 21st District. If Rep. Honadel does in fact retire from [...]
