Does Wisconsin have a Lyndon Law?

When Johnson ran as Kennedy's VP they passed a law allowing his name to appear for two separate offices on the ballot, so he could keep his Senate seat if he lost. Lieberman took advantage of a similar law in Connecticut in 2000 (unfortunately).

Is Paul Ryan going to have to give up his House seat to run for VP?
