With less than a month to go before Wisconsin’s fall primary, another candidate for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination has dropped out of the race.
Lieutenant Governor Sara Rodriguez announced Friday that she’s no longer in the running. She said financial concerns were to blame.
Just a few days ago, Rodriguez fired her campaign manager after learning that the campaign had hundreds of thousands of dollars less cash than she thought.
There are now four remaining candidates: former lieutenant governor Mandela Barnes; former Department of Administration secretary Joel Brennan; state Representative Francesca Hong; and state Senator Kelda Roys.
Two candidates remain in the Republican race: Congressman Tom Tiffany and medical service technician Andy Manske.
The partisan primary is August 11.
