Van Orden vs Cooke in Wisconsin Swing Race | Orlando News
Description
In Wisconsin’s fiercely contested third congressional district, incumbent Rep. Derrick Van Orden is doubling down on his loyalty to Donald Trump, betting that his unapologetic, confrontational style will energize conservatives in a swing district where Trump’s popularity wavers. Facing Democrat Rebecca Cooke — a political newcomer seeking fresh leadership — Van Orden’s campaign is marked by high-profile Trump allies, AI-generated satire, and a motorcycle-riding image of rugged authenticity. Cooke, meanwhile, is rallying independents and moderates with a message of unity and change. With the race tightening after a razor-thin 2022 win, this bellwether district could be a bellwether for the nation’s political future.
