Wisconsin 2024 elections: 4 candidates are running for an open seat in the 12th Assembly District

 
La Keshia Myers (D-Milwaukee) has represented the 52th Assembly District since January 2019, who is running to replace Lena Taylor in the Senate. Taylor was recently appointed a judge on the Milwaukee County Circuit Court.  
 
So far 4 candidates have announced:  Gregory Canady (R-Milwaukee), Brandon Williford (D-Milwaukee), Russell Goodwin (D-Milwaukee), Deanna Alexander (I-Milwaukee)

WisPolitics rates the district as 79.4% Democratic.

The last time Alexander and Goodwin Sr. faced off they were both write-in candidates running for District 18 on the Milwaukee County Board. In 2022, Goodwin was the incumbent in the district, but failed to gather enough nomination signatures to have his name on the ballot. This set off a mad dash for the seat with seven candidates — including Alexander and Goodwin — all running as write-in candidates. 
Alexander came out on top, and during the spring 2024 non-partisan election, she defended her seat against challenger Brandon Williford, an organizer with Citizen Action Wisconsin. 
Goodwin is running as a Democrat. Alexander, a conservative, is running as an independent. Under state law, independent candidates do not appear on partisan primary ballots and instead go straight to the general election.
