Looks like he ran into the brick wall called "reality."


An 18-year-old Sheboygan South High School student in the midst of his second political campaign before graduation said today that he’s suspending his campaign for State Assembly due to “unforeseen circumstances.”

Asher Heimermann, who was running as a Democrat in 26th Assembly District race against Republican incumbent Mike Endsley, said more than 75 people contributed to his campaign, donating more than $3,000, which he used to buy TV ads.

“This has been one of the hardest decisions I have ever had to make,” Heimermann said in an email sent to his supporters.

Heimermann launched his Assembly campaign back in January, about a week after his bid for mayor ended following a last place finish among eight candidates running in the Jan. 17 mayoral recall primary.
