One less potential candidate for Wisconsin governor. WisPolitics reports that a source close to Democratic Wisconsin Secretary of State Sarah Godlewski says she’s ruled out a run for governor but is seriously considering a bid for lieutenant governor and will decide in the coming weeks. Governor Tony Evers announced last week that he won’t seek a third term. Godlewski was elected state Treasurer in 2019 and was appointed by Evers to the Secretary’s position in 2023 after Doug La Follette stepped down. Godlewski dropped out of the campaign for U.S. Senate in 2022 before endorsing then Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes, at which point her term as treasurer was expiring. Barnes went on to lose to Senator Ron Johnson.
