Wisconsin: Feingold Draws Another Republican Challenger
Businessman Ron Johnson has added his name to what is now a crowded roster of Republicans challenging Sen. Russ Feingold (D).

Johnson, the wealthy owner of a plastics and packing company, formally announced Monday that he will run in the Sept. 14 primary, which already includes former brewing company executive Dick Leinenkugel, real estate developer Terrence Wall and businessman Dave Westlake.

Johnson’s campaign will contrast his business success to what he sees as the failures of the “professional politicians.”

“I am an accountant and a business owner. We have enough politicians in Washington,” Johnson said. “It’s about time we send someone who can count.”
