Wisconsin governor formally certifies Biden's win in Badger state
Source: Washington Post
Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers has formally certified President-elect Joe Biden’s victory in the Badger state, signing a statement of ascertainment reflecting Biden’s win and giving him the state’s 10 electoral votes. In a statement, Evers, a Democrat, said he had carried out his duty to certify the election “as required by state and federal law."
The move came shortly after Biden was formally found to be the winner in Wisconsin by the chairwoman of the state’s elections commission. Biden defeated President Trump in the key swing state by more than 20,000 votes, a victory that was confirmed after a recount requested by the president’s campaign in the state’s two largest counties.
In a weekend tweet, President Trump had said his campaign would file a lawsuit Monday or Tuesday arguing that the recount had included illegally cast ballots. During the process, his lawyers had alleged no fraud or wrongdoing but had argued that election officials had improperly applied state law to some absentee ballots. The rules they challenged were in place statewide and have been unchanged since before the 2016 election, which Trump won and did not contest.State law includes a provision allowing a campaign that loses a recount five days to challenge the results in court, meaning the Trump campaign can still seek to challenge Evers’ move.
In a statement Monday, the state elections administrator, Meagan Wolfe, said a judge could still order the certificate of ascertainment to be amended, should Trump win in court. Legal experts, however, have said the Trump campaign’s legal arguments are thin and they will face an uphill battle in court. Evers’ speedy action could make success in court even harder for Trump because under federal law, the state has now completed the process of appointing electors.
