The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel reports:
Assembly leaders for the second time have rejected a proposal from a Republican lawmaker to pull back Wisconsin’s electoral votes cast in the 2020 election, which is illegal.
Rep. Timothy Ramthun, a Republican from Campbellsport, introduced a resolution during a floor session Tuesday to take the impossible step of retracting the state’s 10 electoral votes cast for President Joe Biden in 2021.
Assembly leaders referred the resolution to a committee used to schedule floor votes for bills, a required action for such proposals under Assembly rules, and the committee chairman quickly said Ramthun’s resolution won’t be taken up.

Ranthun, photo above, spend last summer on QAnon shows to promote his call for a “forensic audit” of the 2020 election. Below, the GOP Assembly Majority Leader calls out Gateway Pundit for his typically stupid lie.
Disinformation spreads quickly. Here’s what happened in the assembly tonight:
• Ramthun introduced a resolution with zero support (no cosponsors)
• B/c it was a privileged resolution, it has to be referred to committee. It was referred to Rules
• There was no vote on it,— Jim Steineke (@jimsteineke) January 26, 2022
