Local Races

While we have been focusing on the Presidential election, there are some state races that will also be of importance.

One of the most important issues will be which party controls the state Assembly. Republicans hold a 51-47 majority as of right now, but Democrats are hoping to take control.

Democrats lead the state Senate with 18-15 seats. This appears safe for the Democrats.

Green Bay has a very close race for teh 8th Congressional District. Incumbent Democrat Steve Kagen beat Republican John Gard two years ago, but their rematch appears very close.
