24 - Candidate Spotlight! Guest: David Varnam for Lt. Governor | 10/20/25

In this episode of New Fashioned Conservatives, two semi-involved Wisconsin guys sit down for an exclusive interview with Republican Lt. Governor candidate David Varnum, the former Lancaster mayor making a bid for the 2026 GOP primary after a strong finish in 2022, where he topped the vote in Grant and Lafayette counties. Varnum opens up about his deep roots in local politics, from his three terms as mayor starting in 2016—where he slashed property taxes, lured new businesses, and boosted economic development as president of the Grant County Economic Development Corporation—to his earlier days on the Lancaster Common Council. He traces his journey back to southern California, where he cut his teeth as a congressional staffer before relocating to Wisconsin with his wife.
