Senator Ron Johnson Discusses Wisconsin's Crucial Supreme Court Race

Published | Video Starts at 04:56

But the radical left came in and way outspent our previous Supreme Court justice candidate a couple of years ago. And we lost that one. Only got 800,000 votes for Dan Kelly. President Trump got 1.7 million votes. He's a record, record vote getter now in Wisconsin beat out Obama by about 20,000 votes. What president? I'm so grateful of Elon Musk supporting it, but also President Trump endorsing Brad Schimmel and telling his voters the 1.7 million. This is important. (04:56–05:06)
