NotesSouth side of Milwaukee

The 3rd Senate district of Wisconsin is one of 33 districts in the Wisconsin Senate.[1] Located in southeast Wisconsin, the district is entirely contained within central Milwaukee County. It comprises much of the south side of the city of Milwaukee, as well as the village of West Milwaukee and eastern parts of the cities of West Allis and Greenfield. The district contains landmarks such as American Family Field (home of the Milwaukee Brewers), Walker's Point Historic District, the Mitchell Park Domes, and the historic Forest Home Cemetery.[2] The district also contains the largest concentration of Hispanic residents in Wisconsin, at 45% of the district population.

Current elected officials

Tim Carpenter is the senator representing the 3rd district. He was first elected in the 2002 general election, and is now serving his sixth term. Before being elected senator, he was a member of the Wisconsin State Assembly from 1985 to 2003.[3]

Each Wisconsin State Senate district is composed of three State Assembly districts. The 3rd Senate district comprises the 7th, 8th, and 9th Assembly districts. The current representatives of those districts are:

The district is mostly located within Wisconsin's 4th congressional district, which is represented by U.S. Representative Gwen Moore.[4] The portion of the district in Greenfield falls within Wisconsin's 5th congressional district, represented by Scott Fitzgerald.
