Dying wish-- contribute to Ron Johnson's opponent...

https://madison.com/wsj/news/local/govt-and-politics/she-never-got-involved-madison-womans-obit-asks-for-donations-to-ron-johnsons-2022-opponent/article_52148442-2bb3-5fa0-bec6-b090743acfbc.html

Carol Lindeen, a longtime Madison resident who died last week at 81, never got directly involved in politics, though her daughter, Laurie Lindeen, described her as a “political junkie” who consumed books on politicians and politics.

“She was fascinated with it,” Laurie said. “I remember being grounded one summer and watching Watergate with her. What’s in the news or politics has always been the background music to my growing up. But she never got involved.”

A unique request Laurie included in her mother’s obituary, however, changed that.

“In lieu of flowers, please make a donation to Ron Johnson’s opponent in 2022,” the obituary read.

Remind everyone that:

Ron Johnson spent Fourth of July in Russia with these other foul Republicans:

Prostrate Eight: Sens. Richard C. Shelby (Ala.), Steve Daines (Mont.), John Hoeven (N.D.), John Neely Kennedy (La.), Jerry Moran (Kan.), John Thune (S.D.) and Rep. Kay Granger (Tex.).
