Most swing states talk about election integrity, but the Republicans in Wisconsin are actually doing something about it. First, they fired Meagan Wolfe and now the Wisconsin State Senate Republican President wants to impeach her. She has been charged with election violations leading to fifteen articles of impeachment. The reason they are bringing impeachment articles against Wolfe is that even though she was fired she refuses to vacate her office. She regularly violated state and federal law in an effort to tip the scales in the Democrat’s favor.
Wisconsin Senate Republican President, Sen. Kapenga (R-Delafield) has called for immediately voting to impeach Wolfe, who allowed ballot harvesting at nursing homes garnering tens of thousands of votes and guess which party totally crushed the competition. Wolfe has filed a lawsuit claiming that the legislature has no right to fire her despite the fact that she did not receive enough votes to give her four more years in office.
Because of the lawsuit, Kapenga is asking voters to contact Speaker Vos (R-Rochester) and their State Representative asking them to join in the impeachment petition. In the past ninety days the GOP has fought and won many changes to the voting including getting the state Supreme Court to rule that drop boxes are illegal and the firing of Meagan Wolfe.
Wisconsin has been ground zero for several years with the highly questionable and unethical administration of elections born out in many court cases ruling in favor of the voters and against the former Administrator of Elections and the Wisconsin Elections Commission as follows:

Wisconsin Senate Republicans have finally had enough with the lack of integrity involving the administration of elections at the direction of the fired Administrator of Elections and have implemented a legislative, legal and statutory action plan to address the matter as follows:
