The Wisconsin Elections Commission revealed Tuesday that supporters of Donald Trump were able to gather enough signatures to recall one of Wisconsin's top Republican lawmakers. Assembly Speaker Robin Vos will be the topic of conversation for the commission during its Thursday meeting, where members will decide if signatures collected will force the recall in the district where Vos was elected in 2022, reported the Associated Press. The district maps have since changed, so the signatures could be different in 2024 than what was required two years ago. "If the old maps are used, petition circulators gathered just enough signatures to force a recall," the elections commission told the AP. "If the new maps are used, they fell more than 3,000 signatures short. The staff took no position on which maps should be used."Regardless of the decision, one side or the other is likely to appeal to the circuit court.ALSO READ: ‘They could have killed me’: Spycraft, ballots and a Trumped-up plot gone haywireVos became a target of Trump's MAGA fans when he refused to decertify the 2020 election in the state. Biden won the state by about 21,000 votes. There were two partial recounts and an independent audit, neither of which found Trump won. Vos made more enemies when he refused to impeach the top election official. Meanwhile, he called MAGA fans “whack jobs and morons.”The elections commission has asked the state Supreme Court to weigh in on whether a recall should take place in the 2022 district or 2024 district. The recall vote will be held on Aug. 6, 2024, if there are more than two candidates. The final one would be Sept. 3. Regardless of the decision, the election in November will decide who represents the district in 2025. The regular Wisconsin primary is Aug. 13. If Vos loses in the race, he would be out of office until Dec. 2024 and reinstated in Jan. 2025. Under Vos' old district, the MAGA allies needed 6,850 signatures, but the new district would require 7,195 signatures. There were only 3,807 signatures collected from the 2024 district. "In March, the group submitted more than 9,000 signatures, but the elections commission determined that only 5,905 of them were valid," the report explained.
