Democrats eye Wisconsin Republican incumbent as congressional map expands in hopes of a blue wave

Democratic congressional candidate Mitchell Berman is targeting Republican incumbent Rep. Bryan Steil in a Wisconsin district that the GOP has held for more than thirty years. Operating out of Racine, Wisconsin, Berman is campaigning on voter anger and his personal background as a nurse who understands financial struggle.

The challenge against Steil is taking place within the context of an expanding congressional map. Democrats view the newly configured district and prevailing voter sentiment as key opportunities to spark a broader electoral "blue wave" in the region.
