Walker sets special election to fill 48th AD
Gov. Scott Walker issued an executive order today calling for a special election to fill the Assembly seat vacated by Joe Parisi after he won the Dane County exec’s office.
The primary for the 48th AD will be July 12 with a special election Aug. 9.
The Government Accountability Board hopes to hold recall elections in nine Senate seats around the state on the same days, and Walker’s office said those dates were chosen to reduce the cost to taxpayers and make it easier for the GAB to administer to elections.
