Democrats won key legislative races in northeastern Wisconsin on Monday. Brandy Tollefson unseated Republican Benjamin Franklin to flip the 88th Assembly District.
Democrats won two competitive legislative elections in northeastern United States state Wisconsin during the November evening, contributing to an expected legislative trifecta in Madison. Democratic candidate Brandy Tollefson unseated Republican incumbent Benjamin Franklin by 8.5 percentage points in Assembly District 88.
The victories add to a swath of Democratic wins across the nation during the midterm elections. Tollefson secured 14,593 votes to Franklin's 12,267 across a district that includes De Pere, Allouez, Bellevue, and part of Green Bay.
