Joan Marie Fitzgerald (née Wypiszynski; born October 4, 1964) is an American Democratic politician and retired high school teacher from Jefferson County, Wisconsin.
She was a founding member of the Whitewater Area Chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America.
[2] Joan Fitzgerald obtained her first public office in 2019, when she was appointed to the Jefferson County Board of Supervisors.
At the time, the state's legislative maps were in flux, as the Wisconsin Supreme Court had struck down the decade-old Republican gerrymander but a remedial plan had not yet been adopted.
Fitzgerald faced no opponent in the Democratic Primary, and went on to the general election against Republican Jenifer Quimby, the mayor of Waterloo, Wisconsin.
