While Friday night’s debate was entirely civil, the two candidates displayed the clear differences between them on major issues. Michels claimed “illegal voting did happen in the last election” despite no evidence widespread fraud occurred. Throughout the Republican primary race, Michels repeatedly said there was fraud in the 2020 election, echoing Trump’s disproven claims. Evers and Michels are locked in a tight race. The latest Marquette Law School poll, released Wednesday, showed Evers slightly leading Michels among likely voters, 47% to 46% — within the margin of error.

Johnson has since said that he knew nothing of a fake elector scheme, which is now part of a sprawling federal investigation. The Wisconsin lawsuit alleges that Troupis was a link between the Trump campaign and the fake electors, and allegedly relayed the strategy behind the scheme to Trump allies in Wisconsin. “He’s changed his story a couple of times on handing off fake electors to the vice president or trying to,” Franken said in an interview with NBC News. After Pence’s staff told Johnson’s aide not to give them the slate of electors Jan. 6, Johnson said he informed Troupis. At a recent event at the Milwaukee Rotary Club, Johnson was asked about his actions around Jan. 6.

MILWAUKEE — Republican Sen. Ron Johnson and his Democratic challenger, Mandela Barnes, traded attacks and insults in a heated Senate debate Thursday night that focused heavily on crime, gun violence and economic issues. The hourlong debate, held at Marquette University, was the second of two showdowns ahead of the Nov. 8 election. At various points, both candidates responded to questions from the moderators by lobbing attacks at each other — sometimes wholly unrelated to the topic at hand. Barnes frequently responded to Johnson's attacks on issues like crime and policing by criticizing his record in the Senate. Thursday’s acidic debate came just days after a new poll found Johnson leading Barnes.
