Apr. 5, 2023 – Whitefish Bay, WI – Following the results of the special election for Senate District 8, Jodi Habush Sinykin released the following statement.

Unfortunately, we fell just shy of bringing home a victory for progress and fair representation, and I have called Rep. Knodl to concede the race.”

“This has been an incredible journey. In just four short months, we put together a campaign that came within 2 points of flipping a district that was unfairly gerrymandered to elect Republicans in every election. The fight to continue moving Wisconsin forward is not over. and I look forward to continuing to advocate for a brighter and fairer future for Wisconsin.”
