Summary
Wisconsin governor candidate Tom Tiffany survived a harrowing plane crash during his final approach to Wausau, where the aircraft lost power and made an emergency water landing. The pilot urged him to tighten his seatbelt as they went down; both men escaped safely as the plane sank. Tiffany suffered a gash over his eye requiring 12 stitches, while the pilot needed four stitches — both treated and released that night. Despite doctors advising him to avoid flying for days (missing votes in Washington), Tiffany returned to campaigning the next day. His Democratic rival David Crowley praised the pilot’s heroism and expressed relief no one was seriously hurt. The FAA is now investigating the cause of the crash.
