Heated Rivalry: GOP Gubernatorial Primary Heats Up as Josh Schoemann Fundraising Outperforms Expectations and Turns Up Pressure on Tom Tiffany
MADISON, Wis. — As Tom Tiffany fundraising failed to hit Republican benchmarks, Josh Schoemann soared past expectations, reporting a $1 million haul bolstered by $700,000 raised by an independent expenditure committee led by a longtime Ron Johnson aide. While Tiffany has been considered the apparent frontrunner in this race, these finance reports point to a potentially fierce primary.
“The Republican primary is heating up—Josh Schoemann has serious grassroots Republican support and is cutting into Tiffany’s frontrunner momentum,” said Democratic Party of Wisconsin spokesperson Emily Stuckey. “These two candidates are about to put on a show as they go head-to-head for Donald Trump’s endorsement.”
