The only candidate to challenge Wisconsin’s assembly speaker in his new legislative district has dropped out of the race.
Andrew Cegielski yesterday said he was getting out of the race because of ‘circumstances beyond’ his control. Cegielski was the only person to file the paperwork to run against Vos in the August primary. Vos is facing both an independent and a Democratic challenger in the November election. Vos is in the middle of a second recall effort, though it remains to be seen if this effort will survive signature and court challenges. Vos has called the recalls against him a personal vendetta.
