A third Democratic candidate has announced that she’s running for a western Wisconsin congressional seat held by freshmanFormer La Crosse County Board Chair Tara Johnson on Wednesday joined former small-business owner, who ran for the seat and lost last year in the primary, and Aaron Nytes, a Harvard Law School student, in seeking to represent the Republican-leaning 3rd Congressional District, which is comprised of parts of central, southwestern and western Wisconsin, including moderate exurbs...
Johnson, 61, said she was running to fight for working families, rural communities, abortion rights, affordable health care and prescription drugs, and protecting Social Security and Medicare. She spent 20 years on the La Crosse County Board before stepping down in 2020.
“Meanwhile, Rep. Derrick Van Orden is working hard to lower inflation, protect our border and decrease gas prices,” Reinert said. Johnson’s decision to run comes after state Sen. Brad Pfaff, who lost to Van Orden by 4 percentage points in November, decided not to challenge him again. Former CIA officer Deb McGrath, who also ran in 2022, said she would not run again. McGrath endorsed Johnson on Wednesday.
