Wisconsin Primary Election Deep Dive | Madison News

Wisconsin voters head to the polls today for a pivotal day of primaries that could reshape state politics — from governor’s race drama to key legislative and congressional battles. On the GOP side, U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany leads the charge, while Democrats are locked in a fierce, nationally watched primary featuring Joel Brennan, David Crowley, Francesca Hong, and Kelda Roys — with Hong’s democratic socialist profile adding fresh energy. In the Assembly, five candidates vie for Francesca Hong’s 76th District seat, a reliably Democratic stronghold where the primary winner is virtually guaranteed November victory. Democrats also eye a Senate flip in the 17th District, a critical opportunity to chip away at Republican control. Don’t overlook the lesser-known races for lieutenant governor, secretary of state, and treasurer — they’re vital for leadership and funding schools and local governments. This is Wisconsin’s moment to decide its political future. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
