    There’s never any evidence … it’s about stirring up the unfounded fears of their base.

  2. Haven’t seen it, no evidence of voter fraud… but we will continue to question the results of every election to appease one person’s ego.

    Trump support relies on feelings. Not facts. They get irrationally angry when called out on this, because they want their feelings to replace facts and reality.

    But that won’t stop us from enacting measures to combat it that just coincidentally disadvantage our competitors.

    What’s ironic is that the only significant election fraud attempts were from Trump himself.

    He tried to get VP Pence to throw out electoral votes. He tried to get state election officials to change vote counts. He tried to have fake electors submitted to Congress.

    Those things are election fraud, and they are on a scale that, had they been successful, would have actually changed the outcome.

  6. Glenn Grothman is an embarrassment to Wisconsin. And that’s saying a lot considering we also have Ron Johnson.

  7. They don’t want to state the obvious, the purpose of these wacky restrictions is to make it more difficult and time consuming to vote in congested urban areas that are generally more democratic as opposed to the generally republican suburbs and country areas. Thier goal is to create the hours long lines to vote we often see in the cities.

    Hey, guys, this sounds pretty similar to that time when former AZ Speaker of the House, Rusty Bowers, said under oath that Rudy Giuliani told him that “we don’t have evidence, but we have a lot of theories” when it came to the topic of ripping up the Constitution and declaring Trump the winner of the 2020 election in that state…just because.

    reason for that might be that voting fraud is nothing more than a figment of imagination in the fevered minds of the MAGA crowd, exploited by scumbag politician to score cheap political points

    This shows how much more transparency and accountability we need in politics.

  11. Someone should ask him if there is evidence of election fraud in terms of fake electors or failure to certify election results. I bet that will shut his fat mouth.

    For Republicans, what they want to believe is more important than truth and fact. The conservative republican cult operates like a religion not a political party… And we all know who they worship.

    Glenn Grothman is everything that’s wrong with politics. I say this as someone who has met the man.

  14. Eau-Shitake on

    Can someone please remind these GOP lawmakers that facts don’t care about their feelings?

    – sooner or later liars need to be held financially accountable for the lies they spew and the media outlets that give them cover. Its not freedom of speech to incite the public, not at all when their statements are false…

    I watched Stopping the Steal on HBO last night, this will continue to happen as long as there are zero consequences for false statements. Elected officials sowing doubt into our electoral process need to be held accountable with jail time.

    We can’t yell fire in a theater if there isn’t one because society collectively agreed this is dangerous and could cause physical harm and death. We need the same for our elections. If you have the proof go through the proper channels. Otherwise shut the fuck up.

  17. Grothman eats other people’s pets!

    I don’t have evidence of this but I know he does. He looks like a pet-eater.

  18. The voting fraud issue is right in there with Republicans trying to manipulate voters and societal thinking

    It’s just like the issue with the Haitians now in Ohio. It’s how they continue to demonize transgender people and gay people for no reason – most people who are spreading the rumors never even met either of those kinds of people. It’s about the lies about the border, even though Trump signal to VETO the bill that was approved by the border patrol and by partisan lawmakers.

    The list goes on…

    haven’t seen it but, my uncle’s cousin’s neighbor’s sister in law twice removed said she saw something on Facebook.

    “You’ve actually seen this?”

    “No, we haven’t actually seen it, we’re just reporting it”

    I haven’t witnessed any evidence the GOP actually wants to improve the USA!

    I’ve seen it!! I saw the damage that ALL the claims(phantoms) of voter fraud did in 2020.

    The Republicans party “claimed” that there were thousands of fraudulent ballots smuggled into my state of AZ. They said they would find the bamboo fibers in those fraudulent ballots by examining each ballot with uv lights. Their “audit” delayed the certification by 2 months, cost who knows what, and was rife with incompetency.

    Well, as you can assume, or you may already know, THERE WERE NO BAMBOO FIBERS TO BE FOUND IN OUR ARIZONA BALLOTS!! Not a one!

    It was truly outrageous on so many levels, and I still fume about it. What they did to Rusty Bowers and so many other honest people involved in their whole made-up fantasy fiasco still makes me sick! Well, the next thing ya know, they’re storming the Capitol. Do you remember that, Anthony Kern?

    It was an attempted coup and they were either A: True believers in an easily verifiable nonsense of a lie, or B: They were actually informed and involved with the *big lie*, an attempted coup, and were criminally involved in trying to overturn the 2020 United States presidential election.

    I tend to go with option ‘B’ because that is what happened. In either case, they acted with criminal malfeasance, stupidity, and incompetency, and I would say, acted in unpatriotic and un-American ways.

    “No no, we haven’t actually seen it, Tom, we’re just reporting it!”

    Well, there was one case in North Carolina; it was of course, a GOP candidate.

  25. cryptoishi on

    “We haven’t seen it” but we’re reporting on what we haven’t seen!

    If you believe strongly enough and the audience claps enough it becomes true. I saw it in Peter Pan.

  27. You must show state approved photo ID cards to verify your identity in Wisconsin, IF you are on the voter rolls as a citizen who has registered to vote, which requires providing proof of residency and citizenship. State law.

    but still ready to shutdown the whole government about it

    This is what you get when multiple generations of people advance despite copying someone else’s homework.
    One person made up the assignment, and everyone else assumes it’s correct and copy it.

  30. I’ve seen one massive example of election fraud which is very well documented: it was when the Supreme Court ordered to not count votes correctly in Florida and just give an election to Bush instead arbitrarily.
