Although no evidence calling the results of the election into question was ever uncovered, including in nursing homes, the idea that Wolfe and the elections commission had behaved illegally and delivered a fraudulent victory to Biden caught on. Rightwing figures around the state played up the allegations, with the Racine county sheriff even calling for members of the commission to face criminal charges for sending absentee ballots to nursing homes during the pandemic. Republican lawmakers – including assembly speaker Robin Vos – called on Wolfe to step down. In 2022, Janel Brandtjen, a state representative from Waukesha county, echoed Trump’s calls to decertify the election.
