Voters decided that John Waelti will face Rep. Brett Davis, R-Oregon, in the 80th Assembly District race this fall.

Waelti had 1,364 votes to Kristin Wisnefske's 1,152 votes with 100% of precincts reporting in today's Democratic primary.

John Waelti, 71, was raised on a dairy farm in Green County before completing a career in economics that took him to four universities and five continents, including working for a year at the Pentagon.

Waelti will challenge incumbent Davis in the Nov. 4 election.

The 80th District includes Evansville, Union and Magnolia townships in Rock County, all of Green County, the southern townships in Dane County and South Wayne and Wayne Township in Lafayette County.
