  "account": "Republican nominee for Wisconsin governor, Representative Tom Tiffany, reported sustaining minor injuries when his plane made an emergency water landing on Lake Wausau in central Wisconsin. According to his post on X, the plane lost power as they approached the Wausau Downtown Airport during their return from the La Crosse County Lincoln Day Dinner. Once the plane crashed into the lake, Tiffany and his pilot immediately exited the aircraft and swam to a safe area. Emergency responders arrived by boat and successfully rescued them. They were taken to Aspirus Wausau Hospital for treatment. Tiffany, endorsed by former U.S. President Donald Trump, is set to face Democratic nominee David Crowley in the upcoming gubernatorial election on November 3. Crowley expressed relief that no one was seriously injured, crediting the pilot's heroism in preventing a more tragic outcome.",
