MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — Ten candidates have officially filed nomination signatures in the race for governor.
A crowded field is taking shape in Wisconsin’s race for governor. The list of candidates now includes eight Democrats, one Republican, and one Independent, all vying for the seat currently held by Democratic Governor Tony Evers, who announced last summer he won’t seek a third term.
One potential contender is already out; former state Representative Brett Hulsey launched a campaign in September but failed to submit nomination signatures by this week’s deadline.
Final ballot access won’t be decided until the Wisconsin Elections Commission meets June ninth. Party primaries are set for August, with the general election scheduled for November.
