The 29th District of the Wisconsin Senate is located in north-central Wisconsin, and is currently composed of Marathon, Barron, Bayfield, Price, Rusk, and Taylor Counties. Other than the metro Wausau area, the district is mostly rural.[3]

Current elected officials

In June 2012, Jerry Petrowski, a Republican, was elected to fill Galloway's seat, after she surprisingly resigned in the wake of a Recall election against her.

The area of the 29th Senate District contains three State Assembly Districts:[4]

The 85th (represented by David Heaton)
The 86th (represented by John Spiros)
The 87th (represented by James W. Edming)

Most of the district (exceptions are portions of Shawano County) is also located within Wisconsin's 7th congressional district, which is represented by U.S. Representative Sean Duffy.[5]
