Wisconsin State Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R) on Friday directed the Assembly Committee on Campaigns and Elections to utilize its powers to “immediately review how the election was administered.”

“I am directing the committee to use its investigatory powers under Wisconsin SS 13.31 to immediately review how the election was administered,” Vos said in a statement. “With concerns surfacing about mail-In ballot dumps and voter fraud, Wisconsin citizens deserve to know their vote counted. There should be no question as to whether the vote was fair and legitimate, and there must be absolute certainty that the impending recount finds any and all irregularities.”

I hope the committee investigates the inefficiency of Milwaukee’s central counting of absentee ballots, as well as the removal of voters from the rolls who no longer live here.”

He also encouraged Wisconsin residents to volunteer to participate in a potential recount.
