Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) suggested Wednesday that he might not run for reelection in 2028, hinting at a potential race for an open Senate seat in a notable battleground state in a few years.
I learned in my second run, when I absolutely meant second and final, you cant say never, never, OK? Johnson said during a Milwaukee Press Club event Wednesday when asked about a 2028 run.
I dont want to, he added. Yeah, Id like to dig my heels in now, set this nation on a sustainable course and then go home.
In the 2022 midterms, Johnson narrowly won over his Democratic opponent Mandela Barnes. Johnsons race had been seen as a chance for Democrats to take down a sitting Senate Republican in a state former President Biden had won by a tight margin two years prior.
