DELAFIELD, WI – Mike Van Someren, lifelong Wisconsinite, attorney, husband, father of two, and former Badger lineman has officially launched his campaign for State Senate in Wisconsin’s 33rd District.
In a video announcement on TikTok, Van Someren shared why he’s stepping up to run — to raise wages for Wisconsin residents, to lower property taxes for hardworking families, to fully fund public education and invest in our children’s future, and to bring accountability and transparency back to government.
“Delafield, the 33rd Senate District, and Wisconsin as whole deserve leaders who will fight for our future. We’re missing that in Madison right now, as republicans in the Senate are only concerned with themselves and clinging to power instead of solving problems,” said Mike Van Someren. “I’m running to fight for hardworking families, for our children, and to make sure everyone gets a fair shot in the state I love. We can’t afford to wait any longer. This fight starts now.”
Van Someren has already earned the endorsement of Senate Democratic Leader Dianne Hesselbein and the entire State Senate Democratic Caucus, underscoring the strength of his candidacy and making clear he has the support of Democratic Senators across Wisconsin.
“We are thrilled to support Mike Van Someren in his campaign for State Senate in Wisconsin’s 33rd District. Mike is a hard worker, a family man, someone who gives back to his community, and is fighting to make our state and our country a better place – he is exactly the kind of person Wisconsinites deserve in the State Senate,” said Senate Democratic Leader Dianne Hesselbein. “The 2026 election is our chance to win a democratic majority in the Senate and to deliver real results for families across Wisconsin. We are all very excited to have Mike in this fight with us.”
