Create Wisconsin and Imagine MKE invited all 2026 primary candidates for Governor and the Wisconsin Legislature to participate in a survey about their vision for economic growth, arts, culture, and well-being for Wisconsin residents. The survey was sent to all candidates for Governor, the 17 odd-numbered Wisconsin State Senate seats on the ballot, and all 99 Wisconsin State Assembly seats.
The survey​ results​ are intended to provide voters with clear, actionable information about candidates’ perspectives, elevate the role of arts and culture in economic and community development, and encourage discussion of Wisconsin’s creative economy throughout the 2026 election cycle.
T​he results are being shared publicly by Create Wisconsin and Imagine MKE through ​organizational websites, social media channels, and partner communications across Wisconsin’s 72 counties.
Create Wisconsin and Imagine MKE are nonpartisan organizations and do not endorse or oppose any candidate for public office. ​Â
