Trump supporters trying to recall Wisconsin GOP leader failed, elections review concludes

MADISON, Wis. (AP) The effort by supporters of former President Donald Trump to recall Wisconsins top elected Republican did not gather enough signatures to trigger the recall election and therefore should be rejected, state elections officials said Wednesday.
Trump backers angry with Assembly Speaker Robin Vos launched the recall effort, citing his refusal to decertify President Joe Bidens narrow win in the state in 2020. Vos further angered Trump supporters when he did not back a plan to impeach Meagan Wolfe, the states top elections official.
Trump also renewed his criticism of Vos and Wolfe this week.
Vos dismissed petition organizers as whack jobs and morons and said previously that the effort had failed after challenging the validity of thousands of signatures.
