Each Wisconsin State Senate district is composed of three Wisconsin State Assembly districts. The 13th Senate district comprises the 37th, 38th, and 39th Assembly districts. The current representatives of those districts are:[4]
- Assembly District 37: William Penterman (R–Columbus)
- Assembly District 38: Barbara Dittrich (R–Oconomowoc)
- Assembly District 39: Mark Born (R–Beaver Dam)
The 13th Senate district, in its current borders, crosses three different congressional districts. The part of the district in Adams County falls within Wisconsin's 3rd congressional district, represented by U.S. Representative Derrick Van Orden. The parts of the district in Jefferson County and the southern half of Dodge County fall within Wisconsin's 5th congressional district, represented by Scott L. Fitzgerald. All of the remainder falls within Wisconsin's 6th congressional district, represented by Glenn Grothman.[5]
