Vos advances Wolfe impeachment resolution two days after start of attack ads targeting him

Two days after the launch of a pressure campaign directed at Assembly Speaker Robin Vos by activists seeking to impeach the Wisconsin elections administrator, Vos formally advanced the impeachment resolution Thursday.

Vos is the target of a radio and television campaign in Milwaukee media accusing him of “standing in the way” of efforts to impeach Wisconsin Elections Administrator Meagan Wolfe. FCC records show the ads began airing Oct. 30, according to WisPolitics.com, which first reported the campaign.

In the ads, a narrator urges listeners to call Vos and “let him know he needs to listen to the Assembly and allow for the impeachment process to happen, or he will be replaced, whether through recall process or a primary challenger.”

/snip/

Whether we like the result or not, a Dane County judge has issued a ruling saying we cannot remove Meagan Wolfe at least until the court issues a final ruling,” Vos said in his statement Thursday morning. “I think she should be replaced, but we now have to wait for the court process to work.”

Though Evers repainted her at the end of her term, Republicans don't support Hern and want her removed.She refuses to resign. There is precedent. Walker appointed someone to the DNR. When Evers became govenor he wanted to replace The walker DNR appointee at the end of his appointed term. He refused to leave. The court supported the gentleman's design not to resign.
