REMINDER: GOP Gubernatorial Candidate Tom Tiffany Voted to Overturn 2020 Presidential Election
MADISON, Wis. — Tom Tiffany is an unapologetic election denier who has spent years spreading Donald Trump’s false election conspiracy theories and will stop at nothing to force his radical agenda on Wisconsin. Tiffany voted to overturn President Biden’s victory in Pennsylvania and Arizona and said that he would have voted to overturn Wisconsin’s election results if a vote had been held.
“After the deadly January 6th riots, Tom Tiffany voted to overturn the Pennsylvania and Arizona election results to further Donald Trump’s radical agenda,” said Democratic Party of Wisconsin spokesperson Emily Stuckey. “Tom Tiffany tried to throw out democratically cast ballots and stifle the free speech and will of millions of Americans. It’s clear Tiffany is a danger to democracy and the rule of law in Wisconsin.”
