WI-GOV: Wisconsin's crowded governor's race remains crowded after filing deadline

Wisconsin candidates for governor are one step closer to getting on the ballot — and the crowded Democratic primary field remains robust.

Ahead of Monday’s 5 p.m. deadline, candidates from across the state submitted nomination papers to run for races that will appear on the primary ballot in August and the general election ballot in November.

In addition to governor, offices on the ballot include lieutenant governor, attorney general, secretary of state, treasurer, the entire state Assembly, half of the state Senate and all eight U.S. House seats.

Despite overtures from nearly two dozen people over the last year suggesting they’d run for governor, the field officially has 10 candidates: one Republican, eight Democrats and one independent.
