Wisconsin State Senate District 1

Public education & schools: “A Lifetime of Service Service has defined my adult life. I answered the call to serve my nation by joining the Army after high school, deploying to Afghanistan, and continuing to serve in the Wisconsin National Guard for more than 15 years. I've also had the privilege of serving our state by helping the people of Northeast Wisconsin as Senator André Jacque's District Director for more than five years. Today, I'm asking for the opportunity to continue that commitment by serving our community in the Wisconsin State Senate.” (Ballotpedia Candidate Connection survey (2026))

Campaign priorities & governance: “My name is Mark Becker and I am running for State Senate to represent Wisconsin’s 1st Senate District as an Independent.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))

Jobs, economy & workforce: “I am a small business owner and lifelong resident of Northeast Wisconsin. Most importantly, I am a father who wants the world that my children inherit to be one in which they can not only survive, but thrive.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))

Campaign priorities & governance: “I am running as an Independent because I have always believed that there is more that unites us than divides us. As the former Chairman of the Republican Party of Brown County, I have witnessed, firsthand, how extreme politics and tribalism have warped the fabric of our state politics, for the worse.” (Campaign website (accessed Oct 23, 2026))
