Donald Trump wants the speaker of the Assembly in Wisconsin to take back the state's electoral votes so he can be declared the winner of the presidential race.
The plan was pushed after he baselessly declared himself the winner in the state when the Supreme Court restricted the number of Absentee ballot boxes. He said in his message Saturday that he is the winner in the state.
There is a resolution on the floor of the Wisconsin Assembly.
Trump came up with a new idea. The film is called "Truth Social" and it features Donald Trump.
There is no proof that the vote in Wisconsin was fraudulent. A number of court cases and recounts confirmed Biden's victory.
Drop boxes facilitation of cheating the last election has been claimed by Trump and his allies.
Absentee ballot drop boxes are only allowed in election offices, and no one other than the voter can return a ballot in person, according to a ruling by the Wisconsin Supreme Court. The statutory system for Absentee Voting doesn't include ballot drop boxes.
Vos could not be reached for comment. Vos didn't say anything about throwing out the election results.
Tony Evers denounced the court's decision as part of the Republican effort to make it harder to vote.
The goal of the GOP is to decrease the number of votes in the nation. One way to make it hard to vote is by making it inconvenient. Voters don't have to risk their health at crowded polling stations if they use mail-in ballots and drop boxes.
Trump is pushing for single-day, in-person voting in elections, which would prohibit convenient mail-in ballots and early voting. The president votes by mail. It would be difficult for the disabled and elderly, as well as those working long hours or two jobs, to juggle that.
