Sandy Pasch represented the 22nd Assembly District for two terms.  She is among four candidates running in the 10th Assembly District.

The Republican Candidates

Democrat thrown off ballot in suburban Assembly race. (Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, 6/8/2012)  Republicans will get a free shot at an Assembly seat in suburban Milwaukee in November after state election officials determined Friday a Democrat didn't have enough valid signatures to get on the ballot. 

The state Government Accountability Board ruled just 187 of the signatures Democrat Chad Bucholtz submitted were valid, 13 short of the 200 needed. 

That means the seat in the 22nd Assembly District will almost certainly go to the winner of the Aug. 14 Republican primary. In that race are Rep. Don Pridemore (R-Hartford) and Nick Oliver of Colgate, who owns an information technology business. 

 Republicans in the Legislature last year drew new boundaries for legislative districts, and the new 22nd District includes Erin, Lisbon, Lannon, Butler, parts of Richfield, parts of Menomonee Falls and a sliver of Milwaukee.
