We're on the cusp of reclaiming the type of democracy for which Wisconsin is so well known

Mark Becker, a former GOP county party chair, is running as an Independent for Andre Jacque's seat in District 1

What most sets apart Scheffler’s bid to win the primary and ultimately unseat Republican incumbent Tony Wied is his announcement that, though he will run as a Democrat, he will serve as an Independent. He is also refusing Democratic Party contributions.

Crosson calls on qualities, skills he learned in the military to help him win primary, unseat Wied
