MADISON - State Rep. Leah Vukmir says
she'll run for the state Senate next year.
Vukmir plans to challenge incumbent Jim
Sullivan in the 5th District, which covers parts of Milwaukee, West
Allis, Wauwatosa and Brookfield.
Vukmir, a Wauwatosa Republican, was
first elected to the Assembly in 2002. Sullivan, a Wauwatosa Democrat,
will complete his first term in the Senate in 2010.
Vukmir says workers in the district
need more help from lawmakers as the recession continues. Sullivan
issued a statement saying Vukmir has a record of extreme partisanship.
