The 2001 Dane County Executive election took place on April 6, 2001. Incumbent County Executive Kathleen Falk ran for re-election to a second term. She was challenged by County Supervisor David Wiganowsky, one of her opponents in the 1997 election. During the campaign, Falk outraised and outspent Wiganowsky by a significant margin. Despite the closeness of her first election in 1997, Falk defeated Wiganowsky in a landslide, winning 70 percent of the vote to Wiganowsky's 30 percent.
