Wisconsin Democrats focus on Sen. Ron Johnson at state convention after Jan. 6 committee says he attempted to deliver fake GOP electors
CBSN
Wisconsin Democrats looking to unseat Republican Sen. Ron Johnson focused their attacks on him Sunday, and not each other, as the eight candidates made their case to party activists at the state convention held six weeks before the primary.
The Democratic Senate candidates blasted Johnson for his attempt to deliver fake Republican Electoral College ballots to then-Vice President Mike Pence after the 2020 election, his skepticism over COVID-19 vaccines, his voting for a tax law that benefited him, and his support for overturning Roe v. Wade.
During the House Jan. 6 committee public hearings earlier this month, the committee revealed text messages in which a Johnson staffer told a Pence aide that the senator was ready to deliver fraudulent ballots to the vice president. "Do not give that to him," Pence's aide responded.
