ⓘ What do the party and ideology labels mean?
On the ballot, partisan candidates run under a party — in Wisconsin almost always Democratic or Republican, with the occasional third-party or independent candidate. Words like progressive, conservative, libertarian, or democratic socialist are labels people use to describe themselves, not separate parties on the ballot. A label is a starting point; each candidate's sourced positions show where they actually stand.

Born in Wausau to refugee parents who fled persecution; Marathon County District 19 Supervisor (since 2016); D.C. Everest Area School Board Treasurer (since 2014); former Village of Weston Trustee (2018–2022)

ⓘ What do these stance labels mean?
Each label describes how a candidate has spoken about an issue, drawn from a sourced statement — not our opinion. Support and oppose mean they've clearly taken that side. Mixed means their statements point both ways. Evolving means their stated position has changed over time. Unclear means we couldn't find a clear public statement. Every label links to the source it came from.
How we do this →ⓘ Sourced position vs. campaign claim — what's the difference?
A sourced position is something we tied to a specific public statement, with a link. A campaign claim is what a candidate's own site says about their priorities. We keep them separate so you can see the difference between a documented stance and a self-description.

Less than 2 months ago, I entered this race for Wisconsin State Treasurer. Today, more than 50 elected officials, former officeholders, and community leaders from across Wisconsin are standing with me — and I am deeply humbled. This race is about making sure Wisconsin's resources are managed with integrity, transparency, and a deep understanding of how state dollars actually affect families and communities. I've lived that work. I know how to do this job. If we win, I'll be the first Hmong American to hold statewide office in Wisconsin. But what matters most to me is earning the trust of every Wisconsinite who believes their tax dollars deserve a responsible steward. https://www.yeeforwi.vote/news/50endorsements
