MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The former state economic development director for Wisconsin is running for governor as a Democrat, promising to reject “divisive politics.” Missy Hughes is joining an already crowded field of Democrats for the open seat in the battleground state. The primary is just under 11 months away.  Hughes is pitching herself as “not a politician,” even though she spent the past six years leading the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation as part of Democratic Gov. Tony Evers administration. Evers is not seeking a third term and has not endorsed anyone in the governor’s race.
