GREEN BAY, WI (WTAQ) – An area senator is announcing his candidacy for Wisconsin’s 8th Congressional District.
Republican State Sen. Andre Jacque, of De Pere, made the announcement today (Monday).
The spot will be left open by Republican Mike Gallagher who said he won’t seek re-election to Congress.
Shortly after Gallagher made his announcement last month, former State Sen. Roger Roth, of Appleton, said he will run for the seat.
No Democrats have formally announced plans to run, although several are believed to be considering it.
The primary election to narrow the field is set for August 13th.
