As Wisconsin's longest-serving Assembly speaker, Republican Robin Vos has presided over efforts to restrict abortions, weaken unions, expand gun rights and push back against COVID-19 mandates. Despite that, he's facing a primary challenger who claims he's not conservative enough.

The challenger's argument: Vos should do more to respond to former President Donald Trump's unfounded allegations of fraud in the 2020 election.

"The Republican losses continued to mount Tuesday, as Trump-endorsed candidates ousted incumbent state senators..."

That doesn't make a whole lot of sense, unless you're a RINO or some other flavor of leftist.

“President Donald Trump’s unfounded allegations of fraud in the 2020 election.”

Every “news” story about a booted candidate contains a line like that one. Thanks to Barr, Wray and Roberts.

I’m sure Madison is worried about Republicans.

The incumbent losses. There’s a difference.

And with regard to Wisconsin, it appears as though that retired judge they have doing some investigating, has been finding out some juicy stuff.

Haven’t read about Vos taking any interest in some of the findings.

They’re really lending credence to the theory that RINOs are actually part of and working with the Democrat party.

Vote him out. He did nothing to stop Zuckerberg, Soros, and Marc Elias from taking over the Election.

And Vos appointed Gableman. Vos took no action on the report. Gableman has endorsed Vos opponent as has Trump.

"“President Donald Trump’s unfounded allegations of fraud in the 2020 election.”"

How do they know the "allegations were unfounded" when there has yet to be a thorough investigation? "2000 Mules" certainly seems to show at least smoke....

The really sweet victory is going to be when Chaney is ousted in Wyoming next week.

I cheer every time one of these RINOS is primaried.

The bad news is that Cheney will get a gig on some ridiculous TV show.

Vows has always been weak and inconsistent, kind of a mini-Linda in WI.

“..unfounded allegations ..”

Those two words have taken over all American and British media. And have since November, 2020, and they never stop.

It angers me when I see CON INC rags like Townhall using these same talking points for their articles. Authors like Rachel Alexander annoy the crap out of me. Her boy Brnovich lost and she claims that Masters is a bad candidate which is BS.

Election fraud is THE issue in 2022 and 2024. Unless fixed, there is no hope of keeping our freedoms.
