Wanggaard to wait a 'couple of days' before deciding how to proceed after recount
State Sen. Van Wanggaard said this morning he'll take some time following the conclusion of the recount in the 21st Senate District before "deciding my next step."
"Unfortunately, rather than clarify the myriad of issues that surfaced on June 5, the recount uncovered even more suspicious activity," the Racine Republican said in a statement, pointing to "missing pages in poll books, missing signatures, wrong voter numbers, wrong and unverified addresses and most shocking of all, unsealed and sealed and reopened ballot bags."
“Anyone who argues that this recount was a waste of time, or that we do not need voter ID, either wants to conceal these potential fraudulent activities or hasn’t been paying attention," Wanggaard said.
