Incumbent Republican Senator Ron Johnson was first elected in 2010. In 2016, he was reelected with 50.17% of the vote against Democrat Russ Feingold, Johnson's predecessor. In 2016, Johnson pledged to serve only two terms; however he broke that pledge and is running for re-election to a third term.[1]
Wisconsin's Senate seat is expected to be one of the most heavily targeted by national Democrats in 2022 for a potential flip. The Democratic Party has seen considerable success in recent statewide elections, notably including the 2018 Wisconsin elections (when Democrats won every statewide contest on the ballot, including the state's other Senate seat) and the 2020 United States presidential election in Wisconsin that was won by Democrat Joe Biden,[2] although former Republican President Donald Trump won the state in 2016.
