The Selection of Louisiana's Mr Johnson, 51, was announced by House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik .
Republicans only hold a narrow majority over Democrats in the lower chamber of Congress, so their nominee can only afford to lose a handful of votes from their own side to win.

In 2020, Mr Johnson was considered a key player in the bid to object to Joe Biden 's victory in the 2020 presidential election.
