Jim Troupis laid out his defense following an initial appearance in Dane County Court on Thursday accusing Attorney General Josh Kaul of waging a lawfare campaign against conservatives in Wisconsin.
“This is a political case. This has nothing to do with the law,” Troupis told reporters outside the courtroom.
Kaul charged Troupis with 11 felony counts of fraud for his role in defending Donald Trump after the 2020 election. Troupis was involved in coordinating an alternate slate of Republican electors, who cast the state’s 10 electoral votes in December 2020 contingent on the outcome of the election in Wisconsin, which was still be fought out in the courts. The votes never became valid, because the state supreme court later ruled that Biden had won the state. Ever since then, the left has characterized those alternate electors as “fake electors” and has demanded their prosecution. Kaul has been happy to oblige them.
However, Troupis says at the time four years ago, Kaul agreed in writing that it was both legal and appropriate for Republicans to select alternate electors and cast the contingent votes.
“Attorney General Josh Kaul was told about our plan and he approved it. He notified the Wisconsin Election Commission in an email that it was going to occur,” Troupis said. “No one objected.”
“Again in 2022, the Wisconsin Attorney General explicitly wrote that the use of alternate electors was legally correct and use of alternate electors was absolutely consistent with all prior law and there was no evidence of forgery or fraud.”
