Wisconsin governor primary narrows as Tiffany looms for November showdown

TL;DR
Live results from Wisconsin’s August 2026 primaries show a crowded Democratic gubernatorial race, with a democratic socialist leading polls and Gov. Tony Evers delivering a late endorsement; seven Democrats were on the ballot but only four actively pursued the race on Election Day, with the winner set to face Republican Rep. Tom Tiffany in November. The day also included statewide primaries for lieutenant governor and secretary of state and several Southeast Wisconsin House primaries, plus county sheriff contests in Kenosha, Racine and Waukesha, and Assembly/Senate races.
