We got a win!
The Trump DOJ will not be getting your personal information from Wisconsin registered voter lists. (From the Wisconsin ACLU:) MADISON, Wis. — In a major victory for voters, a federal court has dismissed the Trump administration’s lawsuit — an unprecedented overreach into state election administration — seeking to force Wisconsin to hand over the complete, unredacted electronic voter registration list of every voter in the state. The ruling in "United States v. Wisconsin Elections Commission" ends the U.S. Department of Justice’s unlawful attempt to invoke a 1960 civil rights law to compel Wisconsin to turn over sensitive personal voter data, including partial Social Security numbers and driver's license numbers. State and federal laws prohibit the release of this information. Big News: Chris Able running for State Assembly
The Manitowoc County Democratic Party extends its thanks to all our float participants, to the enthusiastic supporters who lined the parade route, and to Wisconsin Assembly District 25 candidate Chris Able for joining us this Memorial Day.
Here's a reminder of our rights to express our opinions.

To address concerns some have about our efforts to reclaim our U.S. Flag please consider: Over the last decade, Republicans have seemed to claim the American flag as their symbol. Manitowoc Democratic Party, along with the national Democratic Party, is saying “NOT SO.” We are urging democrats in Manitowoc County to fly their flags proudly, especially on these days in honor of “the Republic for which it stands.”

Republican, Tom Tiffany, running for Wisconsin governor, currently serves in the U.S. House of Representatives. He dangerously misrepresents his record. Here's the truth.
On July 15, 2025 and September 30 2025, Tom Tiffany cast the deciding vote AGAINST an amendment to release the Epstein Files (H. Res 580), keeping them sealed. Tom Tiffany never signed the discharge petition which would have forced a vote to release the Epstein Files, despite other Republicans doing so. While in the WI State Legislature he voted for the largest cut to public school funding in state history, and he supports Trump's tariffs that have cost Wisconsin families over $1,700 a year and forced Wisconsin businesses and consumers to pay a collective $3.5 billion. Don't believe his folksy ads, he's misrepresenting his record. Baldwin secures $20 million for Port of Manitowoc
-Thank you, Wisconsin U.S. Senator Tammy Baldwin, for looking out for your Wisconsin Lakeshore constituents! $20 million for the Port of Manitowoc means better infrastructure and more efficiency for Wisconsin farmers and businesses. Vote for Democrats — they vote for us! We are making progress in getting progressive candidates elected. And the president is slipping. Keep up the good work.
