Hi John - Wisconsin Secretary of State Sarah Godlewski here. After the results of the 2020 election were tallied and it was clear President Biden won, ten Republicans in Wisconsin chose to ignore the will of the people. Instead, they posed as fake electors for President Trump. This was fraud, John. Plain and simple. In fact, these ten Republicans just settled a lawsuit admitting their actions were “part of an attempt to improperly overturn the 2020 presidential election results.” The fake electors plot may have been foiled, but the danger from these anti-democracy extremists still lurks: one of these fake electors, Robert Spindell, currently serves on the Wisconsin Elections Commission. Spindell’s actions are all part of a larger, coordinated effort to overturn the will of the people – and they can’t go unchecked. That’s why I’m calling for his immediate resignation from the Wisconsin Elections Commission. While we work to remove bad actors like Spindell who put our democracy at risk, Democrats are focused on the work of protecting free and fair elections in Wisconsin and beyond. My friends at the Democratic Association of Secretaries of State are gearing up for the long fight ahead, but they need the support from grassroots Democrats like you. Thank you, Sarah Godlewski |
