Live: Francesca Hong, who is attending the Wisconsin Democrats’ unity breakfast, is not expected to speak to the news media today, her campaign manager said. In a statement on social media, Hong congratulated David Crowley on his victory and said she would work with him to defeat Tom Tiffany, the Republican nominee. “This campaign was not about getting one person into office,” Hong wrote. “It is about building a movement for permanent affordability and a government that puts working people first. Our movement is strong, and the work isn’t done.”
Live: David Crowley, the Democratic nominee for governor, arrived at a community center in Milwaukee to hugs and applause from supporters. He began by thanking his family, his staff, and his opponents, especially Francesca Hong. “Her campaign reminded people across Wisconsin that there are no long shots when it comes to believing in a better future and fighting to expand opportunity for every family,” he said.

NEW - David Crowley's allies say he's doing much better statewide than they they thought he would - making the WI dem guv primary closer than expected against democratic socialist Francesca Hong in early results • • One key blow to Hong: Roys is currently holding her down in Dane - which should be Hong's stronghold • • Hong is performing well in some wealthier, white Milwaukee areas. But she’s under expectations in a lot of other places. Final MKE absentees could break for her though. • • Crowley, who went on a last-ditch barnstorming tour with Gov. Tony Evers to head off Hong as she consistently led in the polls, is also doing better than expected in the key WOW suburban counties outside Milwaukee. • • Crowley also notched “Bashar al-Assad numbers across the northside” of Milwaukee, said one Dem official. • • via @politico
