The Wisconsin Supreme Court has DENIED a second private lawsuit seeking to overturn the state's presidential election.
The court rejected the petition on a 4-3 vote, with conservative Justice Brian Hagedorn siding with the court's liberals.

Justice Hagedorn not holding back in rejecting this case, brought by the "Wisconsin Voters Alliance."
"The real stunner here is the sought-after remedy. We are invited to invalidate the entire presidential election"
"At least no one can accuse the petitioners of timidity."

"At least no one can accuse the petitioners of timidity."
More from Justice Hagedorn, very critical of the "Wisconsin Voters Alliance" lawsuit seeking to reject every Wisconsin vote.
"Such a move would appear to be unprecedented in American history. One might expect that this solemn request would be paired with evidence."

Hagedorn, continued: "It can be easy to blithely move on to the next case with a petition so obviously lacking, but this is sobering. The relief being sought by the petitioners is the most dramatic invocation of judicial power I have ever seen."
Justice Patience Roggensack dissents.
"Justice Hagedorn has the cart before the horse."
"I dissent because I would grant the petition and address the people of Wisconsin's concerns about whether WEC's conduct during the 2020 presidential election violated Wisconsin statutes."
