Key Takeaways from Michael Gableman’s Report on Investigation into Wisconsin’s 2020 Election
American Oversight's fight for the release of public records related to the investigation have revealed the biased and election-undermining origins of the taxpayer-funded operation, which after over eight months culminated in a report rife with misleading claims.
On Tuesday, the investigator leading the Wisconsin Assembly’s review of the 2020 presidential election released a “second interim investigative report.” During more than three hours of testimony before the Assembly’s Committee on Campaigns and Elections on Tuesday, attorney Michael Gableman outlined his findings and set forth a number of assertions and recommendations regarding the conduct of Wisconsin’s elections.
American Oversight has been investigating efforts to undermine democracy in Wisconsin, and we have uncovered hundreds of pages of public records that shine a light on the partisan influences behind the Assembly’s election investigation. We currently have three open lawsuits against the Wisconsin Assembly, Speaker Robin Vos, and Gableman’s Office of Special Counsel seeking the release of documents that could provide the public with further information about the probe.
American Oversight’s team reviewed the text of Gableman’s report as well as the testimony given at the Tuesday hearing and has identified a number of key questions about the investigation that remain unanswered.
