DNC Chair Ken Martin weighs in on Wisconsin Democrats Chair Ben Wikler's announcement -- he won't seek re-election. Our state's razor-thin election margins means the country (again) will watch what happens here in the Dairy State. Big political news to follow
I've known Ben for a long time. I'm from Minnesota, he's from Wisconsin. Other than sports rivalries, we're great Midwestern neighbors. I remember when he was first running to lead Wisconsin Democrats and we spent time together. I knew right away he was destined to do big things.
