After his unsuccessful 1867 campaign, Johnson became a member of the Democratic Party. He served on the state Democratic Central Committee, and made unsuccessful runs for the California State Senate in 1871 and 1875. In his 1871 campaign, several ballots were discovered to have been tampered with; someone used disappearing ink to cause the name of Johnson's opponent to disappear and Johnson's to appear after the ballots had been marked. Election officials observed the alterations and confiscated the suspect ballots, but no charges were brought against Johnson.
Following his 1875 loss, Johnson rejoined the Republicans. He won a seat in the California State Assembly in 1877, and served from 1878 to 1879. In 1879 he was elected to the State Senate, and he served from 1880 to 1882. Johnson was also a delegate to the state Republican Conventions in 1884, 1888, 1892, and 1908, and was a delegate to the 1896 Republican National Convention.
In 1894, Johnson was a successful Republican candidate for the United States House of Representatives. He served in the Fifty-fourth Congress (March 4, 1895 – March 3, 1897), and was an unsuccessful candidate for reelection in 1896.
