Wisconsin election results: Full list of House, governor primary races
Two types of Democrats fought for the nomination to run for Wisconsin’s top office.
Unlike Michigan’s primary last week, democratic socialists didn’t succeed among liberal supporters in the race to replace Gov. Tony Evers, who is finishing his second term in January 2027.
Francesca Hong, a democratic socialist, lost to David Crowley, who was backed by Democratic party leaders in the swing state’s Tuesday, Aug. 11 gubernatorial primary.
Here are the results for Wisconsin’s House and governor primaries, according the Associated Press and CNN.
