REPUBLICAN SPEAKER ROBIN VOS IS
NOW DIRECTING THE ELECTIONS ELECTIONS
COMMITTEE SAYING WITH CONCERNS
SURFACING ABOUT MAIL-IN BALLOT
DUMPS AND VOTER FRAUD, WISCONSIN
CITIZENS DESERVE TO KNOW THEIR
VOTE COUNTED.
THERE MUST BE CERTAINTY THAT THE
IMPENDING RECOUNT FINDS ANY AND
ALL IRREGULARTIES.
THE COMMISSION REPORTS NO
IRREGULARITIES.
PEOPLE ARE ALREADY IN THE
STREETS OVER THE ELECTION
RESULTS, INCLUDING AROUND THE
STATE CAPITOL TODAY WHERE
PRO-TRUMP AND BLACK LIVES MATTER
PEOPLE DEBATED.
TONIGHT, REACTION FROM BOTH
SIDES FROM OUR POLITICAL
PANELISTS, REPUBLICAN BILL
MCCOSHEN AND DEMOCRAT SCOT ROSS.
THANKS FOR BEING HERE.
>> THANKS FOR HAVING US.
>> WE SEE HOW SOME FOLKS ARE
REACTING TO WHAT'S GOING ON.
HOW ARE YOU BOTH FEELING TONIGHT
TONIGHT.
BOTH FIRST TO YOU SCOT.
>> I FEEL TERRIFIC.
JOE BIDEN IS THE UNDECLARED NEXT
PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
HE'S GOT FOUR MILLION MORE VOTES
THAN DONALD TRUMP.
HE'S GOING TO HIT ABOUT 306
ELECTORAL VOTES.
HE'S UP IN FOUR OF THE SIX
STATES.
I FEEL GREAT FOR DEMOCRACY.
I THINK THE WAY DONALD TRUMP HAS
INDICATED IN THE LAST 72 HOURS
IS A GOOD INDICATION WHY THE
PEOPLE OF THE UNITED STATES OF
AMERICA MADE THE RIGHT DECISION
ON ELECTION DAY.
>> BILL, WHAT ABOUT YOU?
>> I FEEL PRETTY GOOD.
THE PEOPLE HAVE HAD AN
OPPORTUNITY TO SPEAK.
MORE THAN 150 MILLION PEOPLE
NATIONWIDE WENT OUT AND VOTED, A
RECORD NUMBER.
I THINK THAT'S GREAT.
IT SPEAKS WELL OF DEMOCRACY.
THEY SPLIT THEIR TICKET IN MANY
WAYS.
JOE BIDEN HAS A LEAD IN THE
STATE OF WISCONSIN, BUT
REPUBLICANS PICKED UP TWO SEATS
IN THE STATE SENATE AND ONLY
LOST TWO SEATS IN THE STATE
ASSEMBLY.
SO THEY HAVE HEALTHY MAJORITIES
IN BOTH HOUSES OF THE
LEGISLATURE.
>> ASTOUNDING TURNOUT ACROSS THE
COUNTRY.
BUT LET'S TALK FRAUD.
BILL, DO YOU THINK THE TRUMP
CAMPAIGN SHOULD PURSUE THIS IN
THE COURTS ALL THE WAY UP?
>> SO THERE'S THREE STEPS TO
THIS.
I WOULD AGREE WITH PART OF WHAT
PROFESSOR BURDEN SAID.
THE FIRST IS THE ELECTION.
IT'S STILL ASTONISHING TO ME
THAT BIG STATES LIKE FLORIDA CAN
COUNT VOTES ON ELECTION NIGHT,
BUT SMALLER STATES CAN'T.
IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MAKE SENSE.
IT'S IRRATIONAL TO ME THAT THAT
CAN'T HAPPEN.
SO IT REMAINS TO BE SEEN HOW THE
FINAL COUNT WILL TURN OUT.
CLEARLY JOE BIDEN HAS THE
ADVANTAGE AT THIS POINT IN TIME.
BUT ONCE THE ELECTION COUNT IS
DONE, THEN YOU HAVE THE CANVASS.
WISCONSIN IS ALREADY DONE WITH
THAT.
IT HASN'T BEEN CERTIFIED YET.
FINALLY, A RECOUNT.
THERE ARE TWO STATES WHERE THERE
WILL BE A RECOUNT, WISCONSIN AND
GEORGIA.
>> SCOT, WHAT'S YOUR REACTION?
>> THE ONLY FRAUD ARE
POLITICIANS TRYING TO RIG THE
SYSTEM FOR POLITICAL GAIN.
THERE'S NO INDICATION OF FRAUD
IN THIS ELECTION.
PEOPLE WENT OUT AND VOTED, LIKE
BILL SAID, LIKE THEY'VE NEVER
DONE BEFORE.
I WOULD JUST POINT OUT THAT THIS
ELECTION, WE SHOULD HAVE ALREADY
DECLARED JOE BIDEN THE WINNER.
IF PENNSYLVANIA, WISCONSIN AND
MICHIGAN'S REPUBLICAN
LEGISLATURES ALLOWED VOTES TO BE
COUNTED, YOU KNOW, BEFORE
ELECTION DAY, THE ONES THAT CAME
IN THE MAIL-IN, THIS WOULD HAVE
ALREADY BEEN OVER.
THIS IS A MESS CAUSED BY THE
REPUBLICANS AND NOW THEY'RE
TRYING TO CHANGE THE RULES.
ROBIN VOS SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF
HIMSELF.
UNDER OATH, THEY COULD NOT
PRODUCE ONE INCIDENCE OF VOTER
FRAUD WHEN THEY WERE UNDER OATH.
SO THERE'S NO FRAUD IN THE STATE
OF WISCONSIN.
LIKE SCOTT WALKER SAID.
IT'S A HIGH HURDLE TO BE ABLE TO
OVERCOME THOSE 20,000 VOTES.
REPUBLICANS NEED TO THROW IN THE
TOWEL AND ACCEPT JOE BIDEN AS
THE NEXT PRESIDENT.
>> ALL OF THIS THAT WE'RE GOING
THROUGH KIND OF UPEND THE
STANDING DEMOCRATIC PROCESS IN
THIS COUNTRY?
>> WELL, I THINK WHAT'S LACKING
RIGHT NOW IS TRANSPARENCY.
IN THE STATES THAT ARE STILL IN
BALLOT, YOU NEED TO HAVE A
TRANSPARENT PROCESS.
THAT'S IMPORTANT.
OKAY?
IF THAT WERE GOINGO YOU WANT TO
HAVE PEOPLE TO HAVE CONFIDENCE
IN THE ELECTION.
70 MILLION PEOPLE VOTED FOR
DONALD TRUMP.
SO THERE WASN'T A REPUTATION OF
DONALD TRUMP.
YOU WANT THOSE FOLKS TO BE
CONFIDENT THAT IF HE LOST, HE
LOST FAIRLY.
>> SCOT?
>> WE HAD A RECORD NUMBER OF
PEOPLE TURN OUT IN THE CITIES OF
AMERICA, BLACK AND BROWN VOTERS.
AND IT JUST SEEMS EVERY TIME
THAT BLACK AND BROWN VOTERS GO
TO THE POLLS TO TRY TO SAVE
AMERICA, REPUBLICANS CLAIM
THERE'S FRAUD.
THIS IS A REAL PROBLEM.
WHEN PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THE RIGHT
TO VOTE WITHOUT BEING ACCUSED OF
BEING FRAUDULENT, THERE'S A REAL
PROBLEM IN THE DEMOCRATIC
PROCESS AND I THINK THE
REPUBLICANS HAVE CONTRIBUTED TO
THAT.
>> I WANT TO STAY WITH YOU,
SCOT.
DOES ALL OF THIS HAS HAPPENING
NOW HEIGHTEN THE DIVIDE THEN?
IS IT JUST GOING TO GET WORSE?
>> I THINK ABSOLUTELY.
I MEAN, JOE BIDEN'S ALWAYS BEEN
SOMEBODY WHO TRIES TO BRING
PEOPLE TOGETHER THROUGHOUT HIS
CAREER.
YOU'VE GOT GUYS LIKE RON
JOHNSON, GUYS LIKE GLENN
GROTHMAN, ROBIN VOS, REPUBLICANS
WHO ARE SAYING, NO, THERE'S NOT
DEMOCRACY AND THAT'S NOT THE WAY
YOU BRING PEOPLE TOGETHER.
ELECTIONS ARE ABOUT DIVIDING
PEOPLE.
GOVERNANCE IS ABOUT BRINGING
PEOPLE TOGETHER.
REPUBLICANS BROKE THE MOLD UNDER
DONALD TRUMP.
>> BILL, WHAT ABOUT WHETHER OR
NOT THIS HEIGHTENS THE DIVIDE?
>> I DON'T THINK VOTERS MIND
DECIDED GOVERNMENT.
WE HAVE IT HERE IN WISCONSIN.
IT LOOKS LIKE WE'RE GOING TO
HAVE IT IN D.C. IF JOE BIDEN IS
THE PRESIDENT-ELECT AND
REPUBLICANS HOLD THEIR MAJORITY
IN THE UNITED STATES SENATE.
THEY'VE PICKED UP A NUMBER OF
SEATS IN THE HOUSE WHICH WASN'T
EXPECTED.
THERE WON'T BE A TAX INCREASE.
THERE WON'T BE A GREEN NEW DEAL.
AND THERE WON'T BE COURT
PACKING.
AND THAT'S A GOOD THING.
>> HOW DISAPPOINTED ARE
DEMOCRATS WHO ARE LOOKING FOR
THIS ROBUST REPUDIATION OF THE
PRESIDENT?
>> I THINK IT'S JUST A GOOD
INDICATION THAT THE COUNTRY IS
QUITE DIVIDED WHEN IT COMES TO
IDEOLOGY.
I THINK PERSONALLY IT'S SAD THAT
THAT MANY PEOPLE WANTED TO VOTE
FOR A GUY WHO'S DONE THE THINGS
DONALD TRUMP HAS DONE TO THIS
COUNTRY, SAYING THIS PANDEMIC
WAS NO BIG DEAL.
JOE BIDEN IS GOING TO BE THE
NEXT PRESIDENT.
KAMALA HARRIS IS GOING TO BE THE
NEXT VICE PRESIDENT.
IT'S GOING TO COME DOWN TO TWO
SENATE ELECTIONS IN A 50/50
STATE OF GEORGIA AS TO WHETHER
OR NOT DEMS CONTROL ALL THREE
PARTS OF GOVERNMENT, BEING
CONGRESS AND THE PRESIDENCY.
>> I NEED TO LEAVE IT THERE.
I THINK I OWED YOU AN ANSWER,
BILL, BUT WE LEAVE IT THERE.
THANKS VERY MUCH AND THANKS FOR
ALL YOUR WORK OVER THE
