Johnson praised Schimming’s leadership, along with the efforts of local officials and volunteers, in securing Donald Trump’s victory in Wisconsin. He emphasized the importance of continuity as the party faces upcoming battles for the state Supreme Court and governor’s office.

Steil echoed Johnson’s sentiments, stressing the need to maintain the team that led Republicans to victory on Nov. 5.
