Taxes, budget & cost of living: “Hi, I’m Jeff Disher. I’m a Christian, a family man, a local business owner, and a conservationist who believes in hard work, personal responsibility, and protecting the values that make Wisconsin strong. For over twenty years, I’ve owned and operated Disher Electric right here in Stevens Point. I know exactly what it takes to create jobs, meet a payroll, manage a budget, and build real opportunities for our community. I’m ready to bring that hard-working, common-sense approach to Madison.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))

Democracy, elections & governance: “I am running for re-election to the Wisconsin State Assembly because I truly believe that good politics can improve people’s lives. In a time of increasing skepticism about the role of government, my goal remains clear: to inspire optimism, create meaningful change, and deliver real results for the people of Central Wisconsin.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))
Healthcare & reproductive rights: “Government has no place making decisions over women’s bodies. I will fight to repeal Wisconsin’s 175-year-old Criminal Abortion Statute, which makes this important, personal healthcare decision a felony.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))
Democracy, elections & governance: “Let’s get Wisconsin back on track with bipartisan leadership. Wisconsin has a long tradition of being a purple state. For far too long, partisan bickering and gamesmanship have prevented Wisconsin from moving forward. With competitive legislative maps legislators will be forced to work together again. It’s time for our elected leaders to engage in honest discourse about what Wisconsinites need. We share many common goals and values; now we need to seek and find common ground.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2024))
