Nusbaum formally announces challenge of Cowles
Former Brown County Exec Nancy Nusbaum formally announced today that she will challenge GOP Sen. Rob Cowles in the expected recall election this summer.
"People across our communities are frustrated with the extreme, divisive agenda that has been unleashed upon Wisconsin without any warning, and by career politicians who put the party bosses and special interests ahead of the people they are supposed to represent," Nusbaum said. "I'm running to be your state senator to stand up to these radical policies, fight for our shared values, and to provide the leadership that Sen. Cowles is failing to deliver."
Former Brown County Supv. Rich Langan had previously announced plans to run for the seat as a Dem. But he dropped out of the race earlier this week, citing a family tragedy.
