Primaries for Wisconsin’s spring election will take place on Tuesday, February 16, 2021. Voters will make several critical decisions, including narrowing the field of candidates vying to be the next Wisconsin State Superintendent of Public Instruction. The pool consists of seven contenders. The primary election will reduce that number to two – with a final outcome decided during the spring election on Tuesday, April 6, 2021.
