Dan Kilkenny to run for Wisconsin's 11th state Senate District

anyone know about him outside of what's written here?? This is my favorite draft beer....Kilkenny, and it's the birth place of some of my relatives in Ireland.

Today, lifelong Walworth County resident Dan Kilkenny announced his candidacy for Wisconsin’s 11th State Senate District. He seeks to restore political checks and balance to Wisconsin.

“I am proud to announce my candidacy for Wisconsin’s 11th State Senate District,” said Dan Kilkenny. “I love my community, and I’m excited to go to Madison to restore checks and balance to our government and introduce the common sense solutions that the people of the 11th State Senate District need. It’s time we put a stop to partisan bickering. I will represent all residents of south central Wisconsin in Madison.”

Dan knows that Wisconsin needs solutions, and that principles are more important than party loyalty. Dan knows that partisan fighting and the infusion of out-of-state campaign cash have diminished our constitutional right to a representative Democracy. It is time to bring checks and balance back to Madison. No party should have complete control of our government.

Dan will support Wisconsin’s common values of family, fairness, and freedom. Dan believes that everyone should have the right and opportunity to achieve the American Dream. He will oppose the special interests that harm hardworking families and citizens.

Dan has always been very active in his community. He currently serves as an elected Supervisor on the Walworth County Board and the Town Board of Darien. After receiving his law degree from University of Wisconsin in 1982, Dan returned to Delavan to open his own small business. As a small business owner and lifelong community member, Dan understands what it takes to create jobs that bolster Wisconsin communities. Dan was married for thirty years to his wife Debbie, who passed away in 2010. He has an adult son, Nicholas.

He's running against Neal Kedzie...district looks pretty "red" but if I understand it correctly there are some pockets of "blue" in Jefferson County....could be an interesting race.
