Farrow wants to build on Waukesha County’s strengths

Paul Farrow was recently elected to serve as the county executive of Waukesha County, succeeding Dan Vrakas, who decided not to seek re-election.

Farrow was first elected to serve in the state Assembly in 2010 as a Republican. He was elected to the state Senate in a December 2012 special election and re-elected in 2014. He also served as assistant senate majority leader.
