It appears that the Trump campaign’s promise to pay for the work of Wisconsin ballot workers for the added costs incurred in unnecessary and pointless vote recounts Trump demanded as part of his futile effort to overturn the 2020 election has gone the way of that equally imaginary $200 “Medicare Card” promised to seniors, just before they went to the polls in November.
As reported in the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel:
MADISON – The Republican-led Legislature’s budget committee is holding up reimbursements to two counties for their recount costs.
President Donald Trump’s campaign paid $3 million for recounts in Dane and Milwaukee counties, Wisconsin’s two most Democratic areas.
But two top Republicans said Friday they were withholding the money from the counties for now. They did not explain why.
