Vos begins fraud hunt on a rumor

Robin Vos will believe anything he is told, without a slightest attempt to validate any fraction of truth.

MADISON - Assembly Speaker Robin Vos is using the Legislature's power to subpoena witnesses to investigate Tuesday's election after President Donald Trump alleged without evidence his vote totals in Wisconsin are hamstrung by "irregularities."

Vos ordered the Assembly's committee overseeing elections to lead an investigation under a state statute that allows lawmakers to require testimony.

"With concerns surfacing about mail-in ballot dumps and voter fraud, Wisconsin citizens deserve to know their vote counted," Vos, R-Rochester, said in a statement. An aide to Vos did not immediately answer where ballot dumps are alleged to have occurred.

"There should be no question as to whether the vote was fair and legitimate, and there must be absolute certainty that the impending recount finds any and all irregularities," Vos said.

I love the " must be absolute certainty..." part, which shows he made no effort to research the claim as coming from a reliable source. The mail dump rumor was debunked almost immediately, by all news sources....but Vos isn't having any of that nonsense. His Qanon bloggers are far more credible in his teeny tiny mind.

We need laws to force people like Vos to prove, with tangible evidence, not heresay, before any government investigation can be started. Right now, Wisconsin could start spending millions investigating the rumour that the Hodag, in Rhinelander, ate the 20,000 ballots that would have given Wisc to Clinton in 2016.
You heard that Hodag rumor. didn't you? I think I saw it online somwhere....
