He stayed, but only after trying to leave

Less than a month before election day in 2014, Walker stated during a debate with Democratic challenger Mary Burke: "My plan is if the people of the state of Wisconsin elect me on Nov. 4 is to be here for four years…It's a position I'm committed to."

But in July 2015, eight months after defeating Burke, Walker's pledge was called into question when he announced his run for the 2016 GOP nomination for president. At that point, we rated Walker's pledge Stalled.

Two months later, however, Walker withdrew from the presidential race (and we revised our rating to In the Works).

After Donald Trump won the election, Walker insisted he would not consider taking a position in Trump's Cabinet.

And indeed he has not only remained in office, he opted to seek a third term.

At the same time, implicit in Walker's promise was that he wouldn't try to leave. He ended up staying, but he did try to leave.

So, on his pledge to serve a full second term, we give Walker a Compromise.
