By the numbers: Wisconsin's race for governor

WISCONSIN, JUL 16 – Democratic Gov. Tony Evers raised $757,215 in early 2025, a significant drop from four years ago, while Republican candidates report lower fundraising totals ahead of the 2026 primary.

  • On Wednesday, Gov. Evers raised $757,215 in the first six months of 2025, shedding light on the race more than a year before the August 2026 primary.
  • Having not yet declared, Gov. Evers would aim for a historic third four-year term as Wisconsin governor, yet trails the $5 million he raised in the first half of 2021.
  • Milwaukee-Area businessman Bill Berrien said his campaign is spending $400,000 on radio, cable TV and online ads this week, having raised nearly $1 million since launching and supported by a super PAC that pulled in $1.2 million earlier.
  • Washington County Executive Josh Schoemann reported raising $424,143 since May, while Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss donated $1 million to Berrien's super PAC.
  • A growing field already includes two declared Republican contenders with ads running this week, alongside prospects from Eric Hovde to Attorney General Josh Kaul and others.
