Crowley Leverages Evers Endorsement | Milwaukee News

Wisconsin’s Democratic governor’s race is heating up with just a week to go, as Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley rides a wave of newfound momentum after Governor Tony Evers’ late endorsement — a move Crowley admits he’d have preferred earlier. Despite dropping out and re-entering the race in July, Crowley is now leveraging the governor’s backing to push his message: he’s focused on beating Republican Tom Tiffany, not other candidates. Polls show State Rep. Francesca Hong leading at 38%, while Crowley trails at 7% — but crucially, 36% of Democratic voters say Evers’ support made them more likely to back Crowley. With the primary on August 11th, Crowley’s strategy? Stay laser-focused on his own vision for victory. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
