Republican Eric Hovde wants to be a U.S. senator representing Wisconsin
Republican businessman Eric Hovde wants to be a U.S. senator representing Wisconsin. But he's picking a team from Indiana to win the NCAA basketball tournament. “At the end of the day Purdue is too tough and will cut down the nets in Phoenix,” Hovde said Thursday in a post on X, formerly Twitter. The University of Wisconsin alum, who is running to take on Democratic Sen. Tammy Baldwin in one of the country's most watched Senate contests, is wearing a UW pullover in the picture.
” He has Wisconsin losing to Houston in the Sweet 16, while Marquette, located in Milwaukee, makes it to the Final Four before losing to Purdue. Democrats have tried to paint Hovde as out of touch with Wisconsin. Hovde was born and raised in Wisconsin, but also owns a $7 million mansion in California and is CEO of California-based H Bancorp and its primary subsidiary, Sunwest Bank.
