You will now have multiple options for Wisconsin Governor in next spring’s primary no matter if you vote Democratic or Republican. Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley announced his bid to replace Governor Tony Evers in Madison on Tuesday. The 39-year-old served in the State Assembly from 2016 until 2020, when he was elected to the Milwaukee County Executive position. He announced his intention to run in late July, which was around the time Lt. Governor Sara Rodriguez officially entered the race for the Democratic nomination. Other Democrats, such as Former Lt. Governor Mandela Barnes, state Senator Kelda Roys, and Attorney General Josh Kaul, are also rumored to run, according to the Associated Press. On the Republican side, Whitefish Bay businessman Bill Berrien and Washington County Executive Josh Schoemann are vying for the nomination with U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany, former U.S. Senate candidate Eric Hovde, and former Gubernatorial candidate Tim Michels are also rumored to be thinking about throwing their hats into the race. The dust will settle 11 months from now when the primary takes place on August 11th, 2026, and the general election occurs on November 3rd.
