The Wisconsin Elections Commission rejected an attempt to force a recall election against Robin Vos, the Republican speaker of the Wisconsin State Assembly. Recall organizers wanted to remove Vos from office for refusing calls to decertify President Biden's 2020 win in Wisconsin and for not backing a plan to impeach the state's top elections official. The Commission determined that petition circulators did not collect enough valid signatures within the required 60-day period to qualify.
