You know, when it comes down to the way that I govern, this is about making sure that we're protecting everybody throughout the state of Wisconsin. And I've done it as a county executive. We have increased costs for, for our public safety, for our courts, and to make sure we're investing upstream to stop crime from occurring in the first place. Republicans have made a history of attacking Milwaukee in elections when it's necessary. It's interesting to contrast you with the last governor from Milwaukee County, Scott Walker. (01:53–02:02)
