Wisconsin 2020 elections: Who's running in the 50th State Assembly District?



In November 2018, Wonewoc Republican Tony Kurtz defeated Reedsburg Democrat Art Shrader to win the open 50th Assembly seat.  76-year-old Ed Brooks (R-Reedsburg) retired after serving 5 terms.

Mark Waldon described himself as follows in his candidancy announcement
I'm a firm believer in representative democracy. It seems as though most politicians are concerned about keeping their big donors happy rather than representing the people who voted them into office. I promise that, as your representative, I will always place my vote based on what the majority in the district wants. I realize that means that there will be times that I vote in favor of policy I might not support but that's the true meaning of representative democracy. I believe that by working together, Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, and Green Party alike, we can find reasonable solutions to the problems we face.
