D: Lee Snodgrass*
R: Chad Cooke
Democrat Lee Snodgrass of Appleton is running for her third term in the Assembly. She’s the incumbent in District 57, but is drawn into the new District 52. She’s part of Democratic leadership in the Assembly as the Minority Caucus Sergeant At Arms.
She’ll face Republican Chad Cooke, a military veteran who also served a term on the Outagamie County Board, but lost a bid for re-election during the Spring Election in April.
Though Snodgrass is an incumbent, if she were to win this election, it would technically flip the district, and this is a clear pickup opportunity for Democrats.
CNalysis: Very Likely D (FLIP)
Modeled 2022 outcome: D+15.2
