Trump claims ‘cheating’ in Wisconsin redistricting case, urges Republicans to take action

Former President ⁤Donald Trump Slams‌ Wisconsin Supreme Court for Hearing Case on Election Maps

Former President Donald ‍Trump has expressed his strong disapproval of the Wisconsin State Supreme Court’s decision ⁣to hear oral arguments in ‌a case that could potentially overturn the state’s election maps.

Wisconsin’s district maps have long been criticized by Democrats for being heavily gerrymandered, with ⁣many considering them to be the most‍ aggressively gerrymandered in⁢ the entire country. These maps ‌were initially drawn in 2011 under the leadership of former Republican Governor Scott Walker, and they have played a significant role in helping the Republican Party maintain a large majority in the state legislature, despite Democrats often winning‍ statewide elections.

However, with a new liberal majority on the state Supreme Court, there has been a renewed challenge to the validity of these ​maps, leading to widespread ‌conservative criticism. The Wall Street Journal’s editorial board, in an article titled “A Looming Judicial Coup in Wisconsin,” accused⁣ the court’s liberal​ majority of contorting themselves to fulfill ​an “anti-democratic judicial promissory note.”

Trump, sharing this ⁤editorial on ‍his ​social ‌media⁣ platform, Truth Social, condemned the Wisconsin Supreme Court for taking up⁤ the case. In ‌his post, he expressed his concern about alleged ​cheating in the state and called on Republicans to take action to stop it.

It is worth⁣ noting that ‌Trump won‌ Wisconsin in the 2016 presidential election but lost it in 2020. As the state continues to be a key battleground, its ‌outcome in the upcoming​ 2024 election is⁣ expected to have a significant impact.
