General election results
Fusion-party lines are combined only when the official publication reports the same named candidate on multiple party lines. Generic write-in, blank, invalid, and other non-person rows remain separate below.
| Candidate | Party label(s) | Votes | Share |

| Tony WiedHighest total | Republican | 240,040 | 57.29% |
| Kristin Lyerly | Democrat | 178,666 | 42.64% |
Electionpedia calculation: the final margin is 61,374 votes, subtracting the second-highest published final total from the highest. The official publication does not publish this page's margin field separately.
Other published ballot rows
Kept separate from people.
These source rows are not candidate identities. A blank share means the row is a ranked-choice accounting total that would be misleading if added to the final candidate denominator.

Read this record correctly
Official totals; transparent calculations.
Are these official?
Yes. The House Clerk says this publication compiles official vote counts from official sources in the states and territories.
Does Electionpedia call races?
No. The highest-total label and margin are transparent arithmetic from the published totals. Neither is an election-night projection.
Why can totals differ by column?
Primaries, general elections, runoffs, fusion-party lines, and ranked-choice rounds are distinct stages. Electionpedia does not collapse them.
What does a blank mean?
The official PDF did not publish a value for that candidate and stage. Blank values remain blank instead of becoming zero.

How to interpret this record
2024 Wisconsin District 8 Election Results
A ballot brings together several decisions that share an election date but may follow different rules. The office, jurisdiction and stage of the election tell you what each choice means.
Start with the office and the place
An election record describes a particular office or question in a particular jurisdiction. A statewide contest is different from a congressional district, a city council seat or a school district. An address can help connect those boundaries, but a ZIP code alone is not a guarantee of one exact ballot. Use the election authority’s own ballot lookup to confirm the final choices for a voter.
Separate a filing from a ballot appearance
A campaign-finance filing tells you that a financial record exists. It does not, by itself, establish that the person qualified for the November ballot. A primary participant, withdrawn candidate and certified general-election candidate can all leave public records. Read the election stage and the source label before treating a directory as a current candidate list. Registered write-in candidates are a separate category whose rules depend on the jurisdiction.
