Analiese Eicher

Eicher, a UW senior majoring in Political Science and Integrated Liberal Studies, has proven her commitment to campus and student issues throughout her four years on Madison's campus. As a freshman, Analiese began her journey in campus activism while interning for Representative Tammy Baldwin's successful reelection campaign. The relationships that Analiese made during that internship led her to the Associated Students of Madison's internship program, where she spent her semester working to bring attention to issues of diversity on campus. Analiese became even more active on campus through her involvement with the College Democrats, organizing Students for Hillary during the presidential primary, serving as Campus Coordinator for Students for Tammy Baldwin and working closely with Students for Barack Obama all while remaining a full time student.

Being involved in the political process on the campus level showed Analiese that the issues and concerns that engaged students are ones that can be addressed at the local level. She is running for County Board because she believes that the student voice in local government can help improve Dane County and the campus community.

As Supervisor, Analiese will work to ensure that student interests and concerns are represented on the County Board. A proven team player, she will work with the county government to bring positive change to not only students, but all Dane County residents.

Analiese understands the necessity of a comprehensive and effective health and human services department, the benefits that it brings to the community, and the importance of funding these programs. She also knows the value of the natural resources in Dane County, and is committed to improving the quality of our air and the safety of the water in our lakes. Furthermore, despite the effect of the national recession on Dane County, Analiese will work to protect the local economy and the jobs it provides residents.
