I grew up in the Beloit and Janesville area. I currently live in Janesville with my family of 7. I advocate for personal liberty, economic freedom, and limited government. Working together we can reach peaceful and prosperous results.

UPDATE - I’m officially running as a write-in candidate!

A huge thank you to everyone who has supported my campaign. It’s official – I’m running as a write-in candidate. Just enough of our nomination signature's were challenged by the democrat and republican in this race to have our ballot status denied. I do not intend to give up. I will continue this campaign to give voters in Wisconsin's 44th assembly district a genuine alternative to the establishment choices in this race. In the next 24 hours, the money you pledged toward my campaign will be processed into a donation. The charge will appear as “DEMENG CROWDPAC” on your credit card.

This campaign would not have been possible without folks like you. Thank you for believing in me - let’s keep the momentum going and win this for Janesville and for Wisconsin!
