Falesnik qualified for the November ballot as an independent candidate by nomination papers, but on August 30, 2026 she announced she was ending her active campaign and endorsing Democrat Jason Rippl; because Wisconsin's ballot-withdrawal statute does not cover county offices, her name is still expected to appear on the ballot, per Wisconsin law and Yahoo News/Oshkosh Northwestern's coverage of her announcement. She is a licensed professional counselor with 15 years of experience in mental health and administration, including as owner and director of an outpatient psychotherapy practice, per her campaign site.
