Wisconsin secretary of state primary results for 2026

Primary results

NBC News projected Jay Schroeder as the winner of the 2026 Wisconsin Republican primary for secretary of state and JoCasta Zamarripa as the winner of the Democratic primary.

Jay Schroeder, a Republican candidate, was shown at 47.2%, with NBC projecting him as that primary’s winner.

Nate Pollnow, a Republican candidate, was shown at 25.5% in the statewide results table.

Cindy Werner, a Republican candidate, was shown at 14.4% in the statewide results table.

JoCasta Zamarripa, the Democratic candidate, was shown at 0.0%, with NBC projecting her as the uncontested primary’s winner.

The statewide table displayed raw vote totals of zero alongside those percentages. The page also included county-level Republican results, while marking the Democratic contest as uncontested.

How the count status works

The expected vote is an estimate of how many votes will have been cast in a race after counting is complete. It is used to describe how much of the estimated total has been reported, rather than serving as a separate ballot count.

NBC said the estimate considers several factors, including early-vote information and reports that county election officials give vote reporters on Election Day. The expected-vote figure can change as new information is collected.

The results page was last updated Sept. 25 at 6:56 p.m. Eastern. The Associated Press supplied the vote data, while the NBC News Decision Desk made the race projections.
