Former Republican Attorney General Candidate and Fond du Lac County DA Eric Toney has endorsed Jim Piwowarczyk for Assembly, saying that Piwowarczyk “has helped lead the fight for our conservative values,” will “stand with our law enforcement” and will help protect public safety.
Toney is the president of the Wisconsin District Attorneys Association. However, his endorsement is not that of the Association.
Piwowarczyk, 53, the co-editor of Wisconsin Right Now conservative news site, is running for the Assembly District 98, which spans parts of Washington and Waukesha Counties. A small business owner and former law enforcement officer, Piwowarczyk, of the Town of Erin, is a Republican.
Toney said, “I’m proudly endorsing Jim Piwowarczyk for state assembly district 98. Jim is a retired police officer, a loving father, and the co-creator of the Wisconsin Right Now conservative news site. I know Jim is a fiscal conservative who will stand with our law enforcement and parents while prioritizing the protection and education of our kids. Jim has helped lead the fight for our conservative values while writing for Wisconsin Right Now, and he will be an energetic and hard-working fighter for those values in the state Assembly. He will help protect public safety.”
Piwowarczyk is also endorsed by Washington County Executive Josh Schoemann, Washington County Treasurer Scott Henke, Rep. Barbara Dittrich, and Rep. Bob Donovan.
The 98th district includes Hartford, Erin, Richfield, Lisbon, Merton, and Sussex. It has no incumbent.

Wisconsin Right Now is the state’s leading conservative news site.
