Wisconsin 2026 elections: Independent candidate Shena Chapman challenges 11-term GOP incumbent Jeffrey Mursau in deep-red 36th Assembly District

 
Prior to redistricting, the rural 36th Assembly District included all of Marinette and Menomonee counties, most of Oconto County, southern Forest County, and eastern Langlade County    

The redrawn 36th includes all of  Forest, Florence, and Marinette counties and a portion of Oconto County. 

 Maps and election results:  Ballotpedia 

The 36th Assembly District is a no-man's-land for Democrats.  Jeffrey Mursau won his last two elections by more than 40 points, which is probably why this year he has a challenger, Shena Chapman, that labels herself as an independent.




Florence County, by the way, is the state's Trumpiest.  Trump wopn the county by 50 points in 2024.  And except for Menomonee, the other rural northeastern Wisconsin counties aren't that far behind.
