WI-GOV: Tiffany's Donation from College Republicans Looks Smelly

[RandySF]

On January 8 the Wisconsin College Republicans announced “they will be major players in the 2026 election cycle and beyond, launching the largest political effort in their organization’s history.”

“We have already raised more than $1 million this cycle,” Wisconsin College Republicans Chair Nicholas Jacobs declared, “and we are gearing up for a major push in 2026.”

By contrast, The Young Democrats of Wisconsin listed just $2,517 in donations from 20 individuals in the most recent July-December filing period. In a prior year it raised just $9,621 from 55 donors, according to Transparency USA, which tracks campaign finance data.

How did the young Republicans bury the young Democrats in donations? As Isthmus was the first to report, that $1 million came from two donations of $500,000 each from Richard and Elizabeth Uihlein, owners of the Wisconsin business supply company Uline, who are among the leading donors to Republican candidates nationally.
