Trump fans seek revenge against Wisconsin's top GOP official: 'You could be next'

Donald Trump supporters are trying force a recall election of Wisconsin's top elected Republican, assembly speaker Robin Vos, because he refused to impeach the state's head elections official.

Vos infuriated the former president and his supporters by refusing to decertify President Joe Biden's election win, and he angered them even more when he refused to go along with a plan to impeach top election official Meagan Wolfe, reported ABC News.

“It’s truly sad that a group of people who didn’t get their way in the 2020 election are wasting resources and effort working with Democrats to settle a political score rather than better using their time to defeat our ineffective Democrat President," Vos said in a statement.

Petition organizer Matthew Snorek says he has submitted nearly 11,000 signatures, well above the 6,850 threshold required to force a recall election, but Vos said he has put together a team to review each one to determine their validity.

Snorek said he wanted Vos recalled because he did not move to impeach Wolfe and because he believes the speaker hasn't done enough to improve election security, and he threatened similar efforts against GOP lawmakers who block Wolfe's impeachment.

"Fail to serve the people and you could be next,” Snorek said.

Wisconsin was one of several states targeted by the former president and his allies in unsuccessful schemes to appoint fake electors and overturn his 2020 election loss.

Wolfe took over as interim elections administrator of the Wisconsin Elections Commission two years earlier, and the GOP-led state Senate confirmed her unanimously in 2019, but she has been a target of Republican anger and conspiracy theories after Trump lost the state he had won in 2016.

If the recall effort is successful, the vote would likely take place between late April and late May.

Vos has 10 days to challenge the signatures for a variety of reasons, including duplicate or forged signature, or if the person circulating the petition misled signers.
