The Democratic challenger:  Jesse Roelke

Nomination papers challenge filed by Matt Spencer.

Roelke lists an address in the Town of Roxbury (northwestern Dane County) on his nomination papers.  He lists Sauk City as "Name of municipality for mailing purposes".

He's a 2010 graduate of UW-Milwaukee, double major, BA's in Journalism and Mass Communication and Political Science.

Candidates have filed dfor election.  (Waukesha Now, 6/5/2012)

Excerpt: Sauk City, located 18 miles northwest of Madison, is well outside of the 84th District that covers eastern Waukesha County and Hales Corners in Milwaukee County, including the City of New Berlin, Town of Waukesha and Village of Hales Corners. 

However, Michael Haas, a staff counsel for the Government Accountability Board, said a person does not need to live in the district to run for that district's seat. 

But if elected, that person must live in the district's boundaries when he or she takes office.

Don't pack the van just yet, Jesse.
