Mark Zetzer, who withdrew from the 2024 Republican primary for the 14th Congressional District seat, said he is going to challenge U.S. Rep. Dave Joyce next year. Zetzer, of Russell, said the Republicans he’s talked to “don’t think anyone can defeat (Joyce) in a primary. The state’s congressional district lines will be redrawn this year in time for the 2026 election. Zetzer was among three Republicans to file against Joyce in the 2024 primary, but withdrew saying he wanted to let the two others challenge Joyce. Joyce got 76.7% of the vote in the Republican primary and then 63.4% in the general election.
