According to an independent expenditure report filed with the Wisconsin Ethics Commission, the Wisconsin REALTORS Political Fund spent an aggregate of $150,000 to support Jon Kaiser’s (R-Ladysmith) campaign for the 29th State Senate District seat.
The seat became open after six-term Assemblyman Jerry Petrowski decided not to run for re-elction. Kaiser is an investment adviser, realtor, and event promoter. He also served on the board of the REALTORS Association of Northwest Wisconsin Political Action Committee.
Kaiser will face off against Mosinee Mayor Brett Jacobson and Cory Tomczyk, a small business owner, for the Republican nomination August 9th. The winner will face Democratic candidate Bob Look (D-Rotschild) in the November general election.
