The article reports that Democratic state Representative Francesca Hong has announced her campaign for governor of Wisconsin. Hong, known for her progressive stance and representing a madison-area district since 2020, emphasizes elevating the working class<\/a> and addressing affordability issues<\/a>, drawing on her background in the restaurant industry. She supported the “uninstructed” movement during the 2024 Democratic primary, which encouraged voters dissatisfied with President Biden’s position on Israel to write in “uninstructed” instead of voting for Biden. Hong presents herself as a “wild card” in the race, pledging not to accept donations from billionaires or corporate PACs, and focuses on combating a system that favors the wealthy elite over workers and small businesses.<\/p>\n

She enters a competitive Democratic field following Governor Tony Evers’ decision not to seek a third term. Other notable Democratic candidates include state senator Kelda Roys, Lieutenant Governor Sara Rodriguez, and Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley. On the Republican side, candidates such as Washington county Executive Josh Schoemann and businessman Bill Berrien have announced their runs, with Representative Tom Tiffany considering a bid. This election marks the first Wisconsin gubernatorial race without an incumbent since 2010.
