Wisconsin election deniers Janel Brandtjen and Tim Ramthun lose in GOP primaries [View all]
MADISON — Two of Wisconsin’s most prominent purveyors of election conspiracy theories lost their primary races on Tuesday.
In the Republican primary for the 20th Senate District, Sen. Dan Feyen, R-Fond du Lac, prevailed over Tim Ramthun, a Republican from Campbellsport who served in the Assembly from 2019-23 and competed in the 2022 GOP gubernatorial primary.
Feyen received nearly 65% of the primary vote in his district.
And in the 24th Assembly District, state Sen. Dan Knodl, R-Germantown, defeated state Rep. Janel Brandtjen, R-Menomonee Falls, also with about 65% of the vote.
