Brett Dudley Hulsey (born April 28, 1959) is a consultant, Democratic Party politician and legislator in Wisconsin.
[4] Hulsey was elected to the Wisconsin State Assembly's 77th district in 2010 to succeed fellow Democrat Spencer Black, receiving a plurality of 12,138 votes to 7,761 for Green Ben Manski, 4,666 for Republican David Redick, and 372 for David Olson of the Constitution Party.
[7] The other was the 25th Assembly district, where the former Democratic incumbent successfully ran as an independent against candidates from both major parties.
Since fellow Democrat Mark Pocan was running for Tammy Baldwin's Congressional seat, Hulsey ran in the modified 78th Assembly district.
He faced Mary Burke in the primary,[11] but drew criticism when he protested the 2014 Wisconsin Republican Party Convention, calling Governor Scott Walker's agenda racist.
