Voters in Alabama, Minnesota and Wisconsin will see special state legislative elections on their ballots on September 29.
Alabama:
Democratic and Republican primaries will be held in Alabama's House of Representatives District 5 in anticipation of the general election on December 8. Henry White is unopposed in the Democratic primary, while Ronnie Coffman, Danny Crawford, Mike Criscillis, Jerry Hill and Chris Seibert will face off in the crowded Republican primary on September 29. The seat is vacant following Dan Williams' (R) death on July 1.[1][2]
Minnesota:
In Minnesota, primaries will be held in House of Representatives District 3A. The seat was left vacant after David Dill's (D) death from cancer on August 8. Rob Ecklund, Heidi Omerza, Eric Johnson and Bill Hansen will face off in the Democratic primary. Roger Skraba is unopposed in the Republican primary. Kelsey Johnson is running as an independent candidate. The winner of the Democratic primary will face Johnson and Skraba in the general election on December 8.[3][4]
Wisconsin:
A special election for the position of Wisconsin State Assembly District 99 will also take place on September 29, though the outcome is already decided. Cindi Duchow defeated Scott Owens, Dave Westlake and Spencer Zimmerman in the Republican primary on September 1. Duchow is unopposed in the special election and will therefore fill the seat that was vacated following Chris Kapenga's (R) election to the Wisconsin State Senate.[5][6]
