WI GOP state congressman is really a sore loser...

Sanfelippo is throwing a tantrum, like so many other repubs.

GOP lawmaker suggests Wisconsin electors choose presidential winner

State Rep. Joe Sanfelippo, of New Berlin, said he doesn't trust the election process or the outcome of results.

MILWAUKEE —
A Wisconsin Republican is suggesting the state's electors choose whether President Donald Trump or President-elect Joe Biden receive Wisconsin's 10 Electoral College votes.

Biden won the state with more than 20,000 votes.

State Rep. Joe Sanfelippo, of New Berlin, said he doesn't trust the election process or the outcome of results.

He is a member of the Assembly Committee tasked by Speaker Robin Vos with investigating the election.

Sanfelippo is calling for an outside audit into what he said was a wide range of irregularities that cast doubt on the results.

There has been no evidence of any election fraud.

"You either have to toss this election out and have a whole new election, or we have our delegates to the Electoral College vote for the person they think legitimately should have won," Sanfelippo said.
