Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel: “Assembly Speaker Robin Vos said he spent Saturday briefing Donald Trump on his efforts to review Wisconsin’s presidential election – two months after the former president said Vos and other Republican leaders weren’t doing enough on that front. Vos, of Rochester, said he was invited to travel by private plane with Trump to his rally in Alabama. In a statement, Vos said he provided Trump with ‘details about our robust efforts in Wisconsin to restore full integrity and trust in elections.’ The talk with Trump comes at a politically difficult time for Vos, who faces conflicting pressures over how to review an election that both election officials and courts have determined Joe Biden narrowly won.”
“Just before Wisconsin’s annual Republican convention in June, Trump issued a statement accusing Vos and other GOP leaders of ‘working hard to cover up election corruption.’ ‘Don’t fall for their lies! These REPUBLICAN ‘leaders’ need to step up and support the people who elected them by providing them a full forensic investigation. If they don’t, I have little doubt that they will be primaried and quickly run out of office,’ Trump said in his statement. Vos responded by saying Trump was misinformed. ‘While our attempts to make common sense election reforms to close loopholes and standardize procedures were vetoed by Governor Evers, we have doubled down on our top-to-bottom investigation by Special Counsel Justice Michael Gableman. We will do whatever it takes to help Justice Gableman uncover reports of systematic fraud in our forensic audit,’ Vos said in his statement. However, Vos has not provided specifics on what he wants to do.”
