Wisconsin Electors Cast Unanimous Vote for Joe Biden

Tuesday, December 15th, 2020 -- 12:11 PM

(WMTV) Wisconsin’s electors made it official Monday, casting the state’s ten electoral votes for President-elect Joe Biden and Vice-President-elect Sen. Kamala Harris.

Their vote comes just hours after the Wisconsin Supreme Court tossed President Donald Trump’s last lawsuit challenging the outcome of the November election.  “Now more than ever, our country deserves leaders who will put people first and return kindness, empathy, and compassion back to the White House,” Gov. Evers said in a statement released shortly after the vote.

He continued, “That’s why today we were proud vote unanimously to assign Wisconsin’s 10 electoral college votes to President-elect Joe Biden and Vice President-elect Kamala Harris.”

Gov. Evers certified Wisconsin’s election results and the slate of electors for Biden and Harris on Nov. 30.  The votes will now be transmitted to the U.S. House of Representatives where they will be counted on January 6.  Electors are meeting across the country to vote Monday. Barring any faithless electors, Biden is slated to win 306 electoral votes to 232 for President Donald Trump.
