Mark Elliott was a 2016 Republican candidate for District 18 of the Wisconsin State Senate. Elliott ran unsuccessfully for District 54 of the Wisconsin State Assembly in 2014.[1]

Campaign themes

2016

Elliott's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[2]

A 21st Century tax structure

  • Excerpt: "If we want to be competitive with the likes of Texas and Florida, we have to not only lower our tax rates, but we have to look at lasting reforms that fundamentally change the way we tax."

Eliminating the Personal Property Tax

  • Excerpt: "This inequitable tax targets small businesses that don’t benefit from exemptions that are otherwise provided to industries that have access to lobbyists."

Protecting family values

  • Excerpt: "Most importantly, as a father and now grandfather, I cannot imagine anything more valuable than human life. We are called upon to impress upon our fellow citizens the unbending truth that life begins at conception. To that end, I will fight to continue the defunding of abortion providers."

Championing the 2nd Amendment

  • Excerpt: "Enshrined in our constitution is the right to keep and bear arms. Despite the best attempts of the President and many of his Wisconsin supporters to diminish this right, liberty minded individuals throughout the state have spoke loudly and clearly."

Eliminating the skills gap

  • Excerpt: "I commit to working with the local technical college communities to ensure that graduates possess the necessary skills to meet the needs of local employers."

2014

Elliott's campaign website highlighted the following issues:[3]

  • Excerpt: "Mark Elliott is for lower taxes, reduced spending, balanced budgets, reducing waste, fraud & the abuses of government. He believes it is paramount that we leave Wisconsin in better shape than we found it for our grandchildren. Mark wants to create opportunities for economic recovery, fiscal stability and prosperity for all. The government must be held accountable. ISN’T IT TIME OSHKOSH? Government needs to be limited in power and decisions need to be pushed down to the local level as much as possible. There should be term limits on all politicians."
  • Excerpt: "Mark Elliott is pro-private property rights and pro-second amendment rights. Elliott is committed, courageous, honest, transparent, and down-to-earth. He is a principle-centered solution creator who lives by his kind, civil, small town upbringing, and wholesome family values. Mark looks you in the eyes when he shakes your hand and will stand with you shoulder-to-shoulder to do what’s best for Oshkosh and our future."
