If you liked the January 6th insurrection, you’ll love conversative Wisconsin Supreme Court candidate Maria Lazar

 
Headline:  Urban Milwaukee, 3/17/2026

When directly asked in a recent interview, Lazar refused to state if she thought the 2020 election results should have been overturned, prompting further questions about her stance on the election’s legitimacy. Lazar’s refusal to answer comes as the Wisconsin Supreme Court could be asked to decide disputes over election rules and voting rights ahead of the next presidential election cycle. 
“Maria Lazar couldn’t give a straight answer about the legitimacy of the 2020 election, and the politicians backing her campaign are the same election deniers who tried to overturn the results,” said American Bridge 21st Century spokesperson Tiffiany Vaughn. “Wisconsin voters deserve to know that the people lining up behind Lazar already tried to undermine American democracy.” 
Lazar has welcomed endorsements from multiple Republican members of Congress who supported efforts to overturn the 2020 election, including:
  • Rep. Tom Tiffany (WI) – Voted against certifying the Electoral College results following the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol. 
  • Rep. Glenn Grothman (WI) – Supported efforts to investigate the results of the 2020 presidential election in Congress. 
  • Rep. Scott Fitzgerald (WI) – Signed onto a legal brief supporting a lawsuit seeking to overturn the 2020 election results in several battleground states. 
  • Rep. Bryan Steil (WI) – Repeatedly raised allegations about election integrity and supported investigations into the 2020 election results. 
Lazar is also supported by Jim Troupis, a lawyer for Trump who notably advised Republican electors to give Wisconsin’s votes to Trump post-election and was later indicted on felony charges. Together, these endorsements place Lazar within a broader political network that attempted to undermine the will of Wisconsin voters.  [red bold print added]
