Report: One of Gableman's Consultants Said There Would Be Civil War If No 2020 Audit


One of the consultants for former state Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman's partisan election "audit" has embraced conspiracy theories and last year claimed there could be "another civil war" if election results aren't audited despite there being no evidence of widespread fraud, WisPolitics.com reported Tuesday.

WisPolitics, through an open records request, obtained a $7,520 invoice for a West Virginia-based firm owned by Nate Cain. Last December, Cain said on a podcast if there wasn't an audit of election results, "there will not be a peaceful transition [of power] in this country. We will be looking at a potential of a start of another civil war in this country."

Cain's fee is part of the nearly $700,000 of taxpayer money Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) has allowed Gableman to use for his inquiry into the 2020 election results. The inquiry itself is part of Republicans' ongoing effort to undermine the public's faith in the nation's electoral system following former President Donald Trump's loss to Joe Biden.

Wisconsin Republicans have embarked on a multi-pronged attack on the state's elections. US Sen. Johnson has advocated for Republican legislators to seize control of federal elections, Vos and the Racine County sheriff have called for five members of the bipartisan Wisconsin Elections Commission to be charged with felonies, and US Reps. Tom Tiffany (R-Hazelhurst) and Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau) were among Republican members of Congress who voted to block two states' election results from being certified in January.

3. The same thing in every legislature run by Republicans.

You can’t be surprised. WI warned everyone that Koch brothers bought WI,
Gerrymandered state government. That if it worked in WI it would spread and it did.

Since Walker 2009, WI has been the Republican Petrie dish for Russian influence. Ron Johnson blatantly spent the Fourth in Russia for Pete’s sake.

Proof of what I say.... Democrats win statewide and national elections.

Nothing happening here that isn’t happening to your state or a state near you.
