Dan Knodl was among Wisconsin lawmakers who wrote Mike Pence to delay certifying the 2020 election a day before the Jan. 6 mob stormed the Capitol.
Vice President Mike Pence's counsel tells Jan. 6 committee he thought Pence couldn't overturn the 2020 election.MADISON, Wisconsin – Republican Wisconsin Senate leaders have tapped their newest member to lead a committee overseeing elections, a move that has drawn heavy criticism from Democratic members over the new senator's role in a nationwide effort to undermine the result of the 2020 election.
Senate Minority Leader Melissa Agard, a Democrat from Madison, said Knodl was unfit to oversee such legislation given his participation in the letter. Knodl said he is uniquely qualified to lead a committee on elections because of legislation he authored last year that was vetoed by Democratic Gov. Tony Evers requiring the state to conduct checks to ensure those on the voter rolls are United States citizens and"my recognition of election irregularities."
