Incumbent Josh Kaul (D) and Eric Toney (R) running for Wisconsin attorney general

Incumbent Josh Kaul (D) and Eric Toney (R) are running for Wisconsin attorney general on Nov. 8, 2022.

Kaul was elected in 2018, defeating incumbent Brad Schimel (R) 49.4% to 48.8%. Before Kaul took office, a Republican had held the office since 2007.

Sabato’s Crystal Ball senior columnist Louis Jacobson named this election as one of the five most competitive attorney general elections in 2022, writing, “When Kaul won the office in 2018, his vote margin was narrow and tracked the showing of Democratic gubernatorial nominee Tony Evers. Evers is facing a tough reelection in 2022, and so is Kaul. … [U]ltimately, [Kaul’s] fate will probably mirror whatever happens to Evers in November, and possibly the result of the U.S. Senate race between GOP incumbent Ron Johnson and Democratic Lt. Gov. Mandela Barnes.”
