“Hold a town hall:” Cards Against Humanity delivering 2,059 potatoes to Ron Johnson’s Milwaukee office

MILWAUKEE — In March, Cards Against Humanity invited people to spend $5 to send a potato to U.S. Senator Ron Johnson’s office after Cards Against Humanity officials say the Wisconsin Republican sent a cease and desist order to a constituent.

According to a statement from Cards Against Humanity officials, beginning the first week in April, they’re making good on that campaign — delivering 2,059 potatoes to Johnson’s Milwaukee office at 517 East Wisconsin Avenue.

“It’s shameful that a U.S. Senator is too afraid of his own constituents to hold an in-person town hall,” said Max Temkin, Cards’ co-creator in a statement. “He’s running from the very people he is supposed to serve.”
