Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wis., is urging the 1.7 million Wisconsinites who voted for President Donald Trump to get out and cast their ballots in another "crucial" race – this time, filling in the bubble for state Supreme Court candidate Brad Schimel.
"If you want to see him [Trump] be president and be effective for the next four years, you have to get out and vote for Brad Schimel. This is a crucial race," he warned on this week's "Sunday Morning Futures."
"Otherwise, the liberal court will redistrict House seats," he explained. "We may lose a majority there, and I fear I'll be sitting in a third presidential impeachment trial… So, don't let that happen."
Schimel, the former Wisconsin Attorney General and a current Waukesha County judge, is slated to square off against Dane County’s Susan Crawford, an unaffiliated candidate who's considered the Democratic Party's preference in the Badger State's upcoming state Supreme Court race.
Republicans have repeatedly warned that Crawford could support efforts to "draw out" two U.S. House Republicans in future redistricting maps.
