Current elected officials

In June 2012, Jerry Petrowski, a Republican, was elected to fill Galloway's seat, after she surprisingly resigned in the wake of a Recall election against her.

The area of the 29th Senate District contains three State Assembly Districts:[2]

  • The 85th (represented by David Heaton)
  • The 86th (represented by John Spiros)
  • The 87th (represented by James Edming)

Most of the district (exceptions are portions of Shawano County) is also located within Wisconsin's 7th congressional district, which is represented by U.S. Representative Sean Duffy.[3]

Note: the boundaries of districts have changed repeatedly over history. Previous politicians of a specific numbered district have represented a completely different geographic area, due to redistricting.
