Cook Political Report announced Tuesday that it moved Wisconsin’s 3rd CD from “lean Republican” to “likely Republican.” The move comes after FiveThirtyEight’s generic ballot average showed the GOP regained the lead over Democrats for the first time since August and after House Majority PAC pulled its paid media funding for 3rd CD Democratic candidate Brad Pfaff.

Earlier this month, the University of Virginia’s Sabato’s Crystal Ball also moved the 3rd CD from “lean Republican” to “likely Republican.”
