MADISON, Wis. (WRN) — There could be a crowded field of Democrats hoping to succeed Governor Tony Evers.
Evers’ decision not to seek reelection presents opportunities for political advancement to other Democrats. Attorney General Josh Kaul, former Democratic Party of Wisconsin chair Ben Wikler, Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley, Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson, Lieutenant Governor Sara Rodriguez, former Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes and Secretary of State Sarah Godlewski have all been mentioned as potential candidates or indicated an interest in running.
Two Republicans are already running; Washington County Executive Josh Schoeman and corporate CEO and former Navy SEAL Bill Berrien. Other Republicans could also enter the race.
