Trump Campaign Takes Wisconsin Constitutional Battle to Supreme Court
Mayor Giuliani, the lead attorney for the Trump campaign, announced today that the campaign has filed a petition for writ of certiorari with the U.S. Supreme Court challenging the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s decision to allow more than 50,000 illegal absentee ballots in violation of Article I of the U.S. Constitution and Wisconsin law. The petition seeks expedited consideration before Congress reviews the Electoral College vote on Jan. 6. This is the campaign’s second constitutional challenge to illegal mail-in ballots, following a petition filed in Pennsylvania on Dec. 20.
According to Jim Troupis, President Trump’s lead attorney in Wisconsin.” Unfortunately, the Wisconsin Supreme Court declined to address our claims in a 4-3 decision. This ‘petition for writ of certiorari’ requires them to address our claims, which, if allowed, would change the outcome of the Wisconsin election.” Trumpis noted, “Three members of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, including the chief justice, agreed with many of the president’s claims in their written objections to the court’s Dec. 14 order.”
The Trump petition includes the following.
More than 28,000 ballots were counted from people who abused the state’s “indefinite action restricted person” rule to cast absentee ballots and failed to provide proof of identity, including two Biden electors (Electors).
Nearly 6,000 absentee ballots were counted in incomplete and tampered ballot envelopes that are expressly prohibited by Wisconsin statute.
More than 17,000 ballots were collected by hand in direct violation of statute at Democrat-sponsored events in Madison in September and October.
