MADISON, Wis. (WMDX) — A challenger is running against Dane County Executive Melissa Agard in the spring.

Agard just won the seat in November against Dana Pellebon, but that was only to finish out Joe Parisi’s term. 

Now, Stephen Ratzlaff has filed to run against Agard. Ratzlaff is a salesman at Steinhafel’s, his campaign is based on lowering property taxes. 

He’s previously run for state Assembly twice, both times as an independent. 

The spring election is April 1.
