"My goal tomorrow morning, when we hold that conference, which the leadership has agreed to, is to convince the conference guys we've got to slow this process down," Johnson said on "Rob Schmitt Tonight."
"Our rules say that we need to hold our election within a week of the new Congress," Johnson added. "It's been an average of 40 days since 2006. All of a sudden, it's down to nine days."
The senator was comparing the time between Election Day and Senate Republican leadership elections.
