The former Wisconsin Supreme Court justice reviewing the 2020 presidential election made a surprising move Thursday, canceling interviews with mayors and city clerks and backing off on the subpoenas he had issued.
Michael Gableman had demanded those officials turn over every election record they had and meet him for extended interviews.
That request would have involved hundreds of thousands – maybe millions of pages of election records.
A spokesperson says he may ask for more records later.
It is being reported Gableman told it he had reached agreements with officials in Madison, Racine, and Kenosha.
He was still working on similar agreements with Milwaukee and Green Bay.
