Trump backers try again to recall Wisconsin GOP Assembly speaker as first effort stalls

0

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Backers of former President Donald Trump are launching a second effort to recall Wisconsin Republican Assembly Speaker Robin Vos from office after the first one appears to have failed. Recall organizers filed paperwork to start a second recall effort on Wednesday, just two days after they asked a court to give them more time to rehabilitate signatures that Vos challenged on the first recall petition. Ultimately, it’s up to the bipartisan Wisconsin Elections Commission to determine whether enough valid signatures are gathered to force a recall election. Vos angered Trump supporters after he declined to impeach the state’s top elections official or decertify President Joe Biden’s win in the swing state.
