Investigator in Republicans' Wisconsin 2020 election review sought to overturn Biden's victory
CBSN
The man leading a review of the 2020 election on behalf of Wisconsin Assembly Republicans, Michael Gableman, says he's not trying to overturn the election results, but he revealed Wednesday that one of the investigators he has hired did, in fact, file a lawsuit that sought to overturn the 2020 presidential election results.
The investigator, Ron Heuer, is the president of the Wisconsin Voters Alliance, which failed in its bid to convince the Wisconsin Supreme Court to overturn the 2020 election results late last year. The group also joined other state organizations in trying to block the certification of the election. Both cases were shot down by judges.
Conservative Wisconsin Supreme Court Justice Brian Hagedorn had a withering response for the group in his rejection of the group's request, writing in his ruling about a year ago, "This petition falls far short of the kind of compelling evidence and legal support we would undoubtedly need to countenance the court-ordered disenfranchisement of every Wisconsin voter."
