County Council At Large
Matt Brosmer wants to bring a new perspective to the county council. There needs to be a representative of the future generation who looks at different issues” Brosmer said. “Many of the people are older, and they have great ideas. But I think that bringing younger people onto the council will generate new ideas, and hopefully bring other young people wanting to run for office in the future.”
Brosmer, 30 was born and raised in Jasper and works at Procol. He has a bachelor’s degree in sociology and history with a minor in religious studies from Indiana University-Bloomington.
He wants to be involved in the discussions about the justice center complex. “I don’t particularly agree with the expansion,” he said. “We would like to see more rehabilitation for mental health...”
Brosmer would also like for there to be local discussion about ways to increase access to child care. “Talking to some of the younger people, including single mothers, this is a need,” he said. “I don’t know if the county council would be able to do anything about it. But we can start the conversation about it, where we might be able to bring about change.”
Brosmer hopes the public will give him the opportunity to serve on the council.
“I was born and raised here, and lived here all my life. And I plan on staying here,” he said. “I will listen to everyone and make sure the local government is transparent and helps everybody. I will be fiscally conservative and responsible.”

Atalie is opposed to the Mid-States Corridor and wants to work with the Council to find a better solution for transportation issues than a new highway that could take Farms, homes, businesses and parts of the Hoosier National Forest.

County Council At Large
Todd Cassidy, has been a lifelong resident of Jasper and can be found everyday working at the MidWest Cafe, his family's business that is known for great food and great people. "Since I was a little kid my mom taught me to treat people well. People that walk in those doors or walk into my house or into your life in general.”
Todd loves being part of the store and the community of regulars who seem like family after so many years.
He has seen a lot of his friends leave the area but he’s not leaving anytime soon.
“People talk about the way intelligence kinda funnels out of these smaller communities into the bigger cities, but, what I have experienced is people go out when they’re young and dumb. Then, they learn and come back.”
Todd supports issues that will benefit the people of Dubois County, but wants to add some practical sense to the decisions made. "We need to look at how we spend money on things like the proposed Justice Center, and we need to think about rehabilitation, not just incarceration." Todd does not support the Midwest Corridor, and believes any money spent on a road that does not serve everyone in the county well should not be built.

State Representative House District 63
Teresa Kendall, a Jasper resident, a Public School Teacher for 32 years and graduate of Indiana State University. While Education is an important part of her political goals, improving the lives of the residents of Southwest Indiana is the main purpose of seeking the House Seat for District 63. "Not only do we need to spend our tax dollars on locals Public Schools, we need to stop funding wasteful spending on useless tests, and supporting private schools that aren't even in the district, " said Kendall The Kendall platform includes exapanding health care, making Broadband accessible to everyone and all putting a stop to the Mid States Corridor a new terrain highway to connect nearby communities to I-69. “This road will exist only in House District 63 with possible routes that would go through valuable farmland, destroy wetlands, take family farms, historic homes, close small businesses and even worse rip through over 100 miles of the Hoosier National Forest,” Kendall said. “At a price tag of 19 million dollars per mile, very few people in the district actually support this road and in fact grass-root activism against the road has grown rapidly as the reality of this project has set in.”

Indiana Attorney General
Health Care Access and Affordability:
Indiana’s current Attorney General has sued the federal government over the Affordable Care Act. If he is successful, more than 400,000 Hoosiers could lose their health care coverage, insurers would once again be able to deny health insurance to Hoosiers with pre-existing medical conditions, and there would be no guarantee of health care coverage for those family members under the age of 26. Jonathan Weinzapfel believes we need to find ways to make health care MORE affordable and accessible, not less so.
Criminal Justice Reform:
Our jails are overflowing. Our mental health programs are understaffed and underfunded. Opioids and meth are destroying too many of our families and our communities. We need a strong Attorney General who will work with law enforcement and mental health professionals to ensure that prevention gets as much focus as punishment.
Consumer Advocacy:
The No Call List is broken. Jonathan Weinzapfel will fight the telemarketers to restore your privacy and crack down on phone scams that prey especially on seniors.
