Democratic Party of the 8th Congressional District of Wisconsin

ICYMI: WI-08 has Congressional Candidates!


August 21, 2025

That's right, you read that right -- Wisconsin's 8th Congressional District has candidates -- plural -- running under the Democratic ticket for the U.S. House seat Tony Wied is keeping warm.

This weekend, two declared candidates began to make the rounds, introducing themselves to voters across our district.

Get to know the candidates by following their social media, check out their websites, and stay tuned in for more as they build their campaigns.

You can also see them on August 30th at Indivisible Brown County's Where's Wied Town Hall. If Tony Wied does not want to show up to talk with constituents, the candidates who want to do his job will.

We’ve seen what happens when politicians rig the rules to silence voters—and Tony Wied stays silent. But silence and inaction have a price.

We will fight. We will mobilize. We will organize. And with your help, we will hold him accountable every single day between now and Election Day 2026.

👉 Chip in today to show Congressman Wied that our voices are stronger than his silence.
