Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), a Mitt Romney surrogate, said on Fox News Sunday that abortion does not register as an issue in voters’ minds in Wisconsin.

“It’s not even an issue here in Wisconsin. It doesn’t even move the radar at all,” he said, arguing that Wisconsinites are more concerned about what happened in Benghazi. “Abortion doesn’t even show up.”

Johnson said only “one person” had brought up the issue of abortion and rape to him.
