Not in a Biden Midterm. Wisconsin has become a "True Swing State" now.

2016 Presidential Race

Donald Trump (R) 1,405,284 = 47.8 %
Hillary Clinton (D) 1,382,536 = 47.0 %

Trump wins by 22,748 Votes.

2018 Governor Race

Tony Evers (D) 1,324,307 = 49.6 %
Scott Walker (R) 1,295,080 = 48.5 %

Evers wins by 29,227 Votes.

2020 Presidential Race

Joe Biden (D) 1,630,716 = 49.4 %
Donald Trump (R) 1,610,151 = 48.8 %

Biden wins by 20,565 Votes.

Wisconsin has undergone a remarkable Political Transformation that started with the Elections of Scott Walker and Ron Johnson in 2010. The last 3 Big Races (2016-2020...Presidential & Governor Races) were all decided by less than 30K. Wisconsin is now a State that's permanently available for Republicans whether it's a Governor, Senate or Presidential Contest assuming they have a strong GOP Candidate.

I am very well aware of all this.

I am simply stating that Democrats will have it easier without Johnson. So I am in disagreement with the OP.

Not sure about that! If those draconian lockdowns imposed by Governor Evers in Wisconsin continue he'll face a similar blowback like NC Governor Roy Cooper, who only won 51-47 this year.
Evers poor showing could drag down the D-Senate Candidate no matter if Johnson runs again or not.

I've already predicted that Evers will lose in 2022 along with Laura Kelly and Gretchen Whitmer.

I am with you on lockdowns. They are counter productive at this point.
