Democrat Marge Krupp of Pleasant Praire won her party's nomination to face Rep. Paul Ryan for Wisconsin's 1st Congressional District seat in the November general election.

Results from today's primary election showed Krupp received 5,832 votes, or 37 percent of the votes, in the farflung 1st District.

She garnered 686 votes in Rock County, where Janesville and the eastern part of the county are in the 1st District.

She received 329 votes in Walworth County, which is entirely in the district.

Krupp, a chemical process engineer, now faces the task of defeating Ryan, a five-term Republican incumbent from Janesville.

Keep up the negative trash talking, dems. It will really get you far. Make sure you get all your celebrity friends to endorse your candidates too. It worked really well for John Kerry.

Ryan will try to sweet talk the elderly and the mis informed. I beg everyone to look at his voting record and not just his pretty face. He will find work.....don't worry about that.....he has many many friend's in low places.
