D: Michael Rapp

R: Dan Feyen*

Dan Feyen is a member of Republican state legislative leadership as the Assistant Majority Leader. In the most recent session, he was among the lead authors of the bill to keep the Milwaukee Brewers in town until 2050, and has since been appointed to the Board of Directors for the Wisconsin Professional Baseball Park District. 

In August, he faced a primary challenge from far-right election denier Timothy Ramthun, which reportedly had some Republican leaders shook, but Feyen won the primary handily, roughly 65% to 35%. In the general election, Feyen will face Democrat Michael Rapp, a political newcomer.
