Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley Reenters the Race for Wisconsin Governor

Evers said Crowley is the strongest Democrat to beat Tom Tiffany as the field shifts after Sara Rodriguez’s exit and a campaign finance scandal.

  • Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley re-entered the Democratic primary for Wisconsin governor on Saturday, receiving a late endorsement from outgoing Governor Tony Evers.
  • Crowley's return follows the July 17 withdrawal of Lieutenant Governor Sara Rodriguez, whose campaign collapsed amid finance reporting issues; Crowley had suspended his initial bid two weeks ago to endorse her.
  • Reporting roughly $300,000 to $315,000 cash on hand, Crowley faces a competitive field for the August 11 primary as he aims to defeat Republican Representative Tom Tiffany.
  • Francesca Hong welcomed the competition, but a spokesperson for Mandela Barnes' campaign labeled the move a 'Hail Mary' intended to play spoiler against Tiffany.
  • The Republican Governors Association invested $2.2 million in ads, which Crowley calls a 'five-alarm warning' for Democrats as the nominee prepares to face Tiffany in November.
