Wisconsin's 2024 electors cast ballots for Trump

Frederica Freyberg:
Also this week, Wisconsin’s ten electoral votes were officially cast for Donald Trump to be the next president of the United States.

Brian Schimming:
The nominated presidential electors from the Republican Party of Wisconsin are the duly appointed presidential electors for the state of Wisconsin.

Frederica Freyberg:
Electors for the Republican Party met at the Capitol and invited the media to witness them sign off on the formal documents that will be submitted to Congress and officially counted on January 6th of next year. This comes four years after the Republican electors met in secret at the Capitol and signed off on fake documents. Three lawyers for the Trump campaign then attempted to pass those false electoral votes to then Vice President Mike Pence. Those three, including Wisconsin Attorney Jim Troupis, are now charged with 11 counts of forgery for their roles in the scheme. Troupis and the other lawyers have a preliminary hearing in the case scheduled for January 28th.
