Madison – It what can only be described as openly defiant and breath-taking behavior on behalf of the 3 democrats on the Wisconsin Election Commission (WEC), state election law appears to have been deliberately and purposely ignored on June 27th at the WEC Meeting regarding the reappointment of the Administrator of Elections.
The Wisconsin Election Commission’s 3 democrats voted to “abstain” and the 3 republicans, to move the appointment matter of the Administrator forward, voted “yes” on the appointment consideration of the Administrator of Elections Position thereby purposely causing a deadlock so that the current Administrator would, in the democrats’ mind, remain in place indefinitely.
Wisconsin voters were invited by these 3 democrats to sue them in court if they don’t like their decision on the Wisconsin Election Commission to keep the Administrator of Elections in place indefinitely.
The 3 democrats on the Commission immediately extoled the many, what was in their mind, election administration virtues of the current Administrator and how Wisconsin is so fortunate to have someone of her stature to administer elections in Wisconsin that has become the envy of so many election officials across America.
The 3 democrats then went on to stipulate in some fashion that they don’t have the “authority”, “jurisdiction” or “power” to address the appointment matter for the Administrator position on the agenda.
Democrats being democrats, purposely conflated the Administrator’s Term expiring on July 1, 2023, with the statutory language of “vacancy” in statute 15.61 and 17.03 to deliberately confuse the issue and control the narrative and optics for the press and media in Wisconsin to provide what appears to be cover for them and the current Administrator.
Vacancy, per Statute 17.03, only applies to “public office”, not Agency Administrators.
The Prehn Decision involved a DNR Board Member and not the Administrator of a major Wisconsin government agency that just happens to have an effect on the administration of elections in Wisconsin.
In an absolute act of arrogant defiance of State Election Law and specific statutory responsibilities for the Wisconsin State Senate, Democrat Commissioner Thomsen, a practicing attorney, then proudly stated:
A wise man once asked, “Do you know what the difference is between a snake and a democrat? There’s just some things a snake won’t do.”
What’s the pathway forward for democrat lawbreakers?
Democrats seem to have a propensity to use the courts to find ways around the law.
Republicans seem to only use the courts to have the laws enforced.
Wisconsin needs to ask itself once and for all, “When is enough, enough with these law-breaking democrats who have unlimited resources and dare anyone to sue them in hopes of getting their way while everyone else just gives up and surrenders.”
Wisconsin deserves better and hopefully some very wise and dedicated people will not give up and do the right thing by addressing the latest attempt of democrats to be in your face by openly breaking the law involving the administration of elections with integrity.
