Swagel joins Wisconsin Assembly race against Kitchens

You may see a Republican primary for Wisconsin's First Assembly District.

 

Kewaunee resident Milt Swagel submitted his campaign registration statement last week, joining current First District Assembly Rep.Joel Kitchens to pursue the seat. Both are listed as Republicans according to the Campaign Tracking List updated by the Wisconsin Elections Commission on Wednesday. Swagel is currently the District 12 Supervisor for the Kewaunee County Board.

 

No new candidates have officially entered the races for the First District State Senate seat now held by Andre Jacque or the Eighth District U.S. Representative seat held by Rep. Mike Gallagher. Although he has not filed his campaign registration statement, Gallagher did tout his endorsement for re-election from former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo last week. Sturgeon Bay’s Jacob J. VandenPlas of the Libertarian Party, Luxemburg’s Robbie Hoffmann of the Environmental Party, and Appleton’s Robin Kettleson of the Democratic Party are potential challengers.

 

All candidates still need to submit the necessary signatures to be placed on the ballot for the August partisan primary and the November general election.
