“I would’ve never guessed that my job as governor…was going to be mainly about making sure that our democracy is still intact in this state,”--Tony Evers, Gov of WI

Even GA Gov. Brian Kemp knew there was a line not to be crossed regarding the validity of 2020 election results. He stood by GA results that handed GA electoral votes to Joe Biden. None of the Republicans looking to challenge Tony Evers for the Wisconsin governorship would have any hesitation to toss results they don’t like. One leading contender wants to destroy the bipartisan WI Election Commission so there is only "one throat to choke…if elections go wrong.” Another is still actively pursuing the decertification of the 2020 presidential results.
If Tony Evers falls, so does the state of Wisconsin. Republicans would have a trifecta and would use it to turn it into the Florida of the Midwest. Tony Evers' veto is the only thing that has stopped them so far.
A sample of headlines:
· Wisconsin's Democratic governor vetoes GOP abortion bills
· Tony Evers vetoes critical race theory ban bill
· Gov. Tony Evers Vetoes 6 GOP-Backed Election Bills
Wisconsin statewide elections are often decided by 1% or less. Tony Evers defeated Scott Walker by 1.1% and Biden defeated Trump by 0.63%. Much attention gets focused on Milwaukee and Madison but neither of these wins would have been possible without strength in other parts of the state.
