Crowley supera a Hong en primarias demócratas de Wisconsin

David Crowley, ejecutivo del condado de Milwaukee, venció por poco a la asambleísta estatal Francesca Hong en la primaria demócrata para gobernador de Wisconsin el 4 de agosto de 2026, obteniendo el respaldo del gobernador Tony Evers y presentándose como el candidato más electable del partido en el estado clave. En etapas anteriores de la campaña, Hong, quien se autodefine como socialista democrática, lideraba la concurrida contienda y mantenía una ventaja de dos dígitos en las encuestas, mientras grupos progresistas la respaldaban y anuncios vinculados a republicanos la acusaban de ser demasiado liberal. La contienda puso de relieve una creciente división ideológica dentro del Partido Demócrata de Wisconsin, un fenómeno que también se observó en las primarias de Minnesota y otros estados del medio-oeste.
