Fitchburg City Council member and Dane County supervisor-elect Randy Udell (D) announced his bid for the 47th AD. Mr. Udell’s campaign said he will focus on broadband access, abortion rights, affordable childcare, education, Medicaid expansion, and climate change, among others. The district’s current Rep. Jimmy Anderson (D) has announced plans to run for the 16th AD after Sen. Melissa Agard (D) said she would not be seeking reelection. The new 47th has a 73% Democratic lean based on the results of the 2022 election at the top of the ticket. The primary will be held on August 13th.
