Capitol Dome Faces New Bid to Unseat Rep Hull
Madison reports a fresh bid by Wisconsin Republicans to topple Merlin Hull in the Ninth District. George Sipple leads the challenge, aided by Dunn County GOP ties, as Hull’s voting strength and district organization loom large. Hull’s past primary defenses show strong margins against Connor Hansen and Hugh Jones, with Democratic crossovers potentially aiding Sipple. The outcome hinges on Democratic senator primary effects and Hull’s long-standing political machine. An Ohio banker observes stocking banks thinning, but summer may bring a roll for some.
