3rd Congressional District Representative
3rd Congressional District Representative
As a small business owner and nonprofit leader, Rebecca Cooke has focused her career on building community and serving others. Born and raised on an Eau Claire dairy farm and appointed by Governor Tony Evers to the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, Rebecca knows the economic and social challenges facing the small towns and rural communities for which she’s fiercely advocated for, from the kitchen table to the board room. While Rebecca runs for Congress 7 days a week, she also waitresses. She believes we need more working class voices in Congress – folks who aren’t so far left or so far right but want work across the aisle to deliver for working families.
Wisconsin State Governor

His father worked as an electrician and his mother worked in the service industry, while both battled addiction and mental health struggles. David never knew if he would come home from school to find his family's belongings on the curb due to another eviction, food in the kitchen, or the heat and lights still on. He learned early that hard work alone isn't always enough. That when systems fail, families feel it first.
His lived experience is not just his backstory.
It is how he governs. He will do whatever it takes to make sure children and families are safe, healthy, and able to thrive. Every child, every resident, every family deserves a Wisconsin full of opportunity.
Because at the end of the day, David Crowley knows what it feels like when the basics are out of reach — and what it looks like when a community finally gets what it needs. That is the governor he will be for every Wisconsinite.

As a fifth-generation Wisconsinite, working mom, daughter of two public school teachers, and product of a union home, Sarah Godlewski is no stranger to being scrappy if that’s what it takes to get the job done. She’s a dedicated public servant and an experienced business leader who has never been afraid to take on the tough fights and deliver results.
Over the past seven years, I’ve had the honor of serving the people of Wisconsin — first as your State Treasurer, and now as your Secretary of State. I’m proud of what we’ve done together: preventing foreclosures, expanding home ownership, delivering record-breaking funds to public schools, and improving access to services.
Josh Kaul took office as Attorney General in January 2019. His administration has fought crime, protected our natural resources, and defended our rights, taking on tough issues and getting results. He has consistently fought for the best interests of Wisconsinites, with a track record that shows that he’ll work with anyone and stand up to anyone.
When Josh came home to Wisconsin to raise a family, he took on a new challenge: protecting our right to vote. He went to court to fight back against laws that restrict access to the ballot box.

JoCasta Zamarripa is a lifelong Milwaukeean, a proud daughter of the city’s south side, and a dedicated public servant who’s never stopped fighting for working people. Born and raised in the very neighborhoods she now represents, JoCasta has spent her life pushing for progress that reflects the realities of everyday Wisconsinites.
JoCasta is running as a Democrat for Wisconsin Secretary of State to use the platform to fight for what matters: more funding for our schools so families aren’t forced into referenda every election, real housing relief for working people, and affordable child care that lets parents breathe.
Yee Leng Xiong's story is about service, stewardship, and never forgetting where you came from. Born in Wausau to refugees who fled persecution and communism, Yee learned early that freedom comes with responsibility—the responsibility to give back and build a better future for the next generation. His parents lost their eldest son during their escape, a tragedy that instilled in Yee the value of protecting what matters most: family, community, and opportunity.
