GREENVILLE, WI (WTAQ) – One local state legislator is asking questions about why he wasn’t assigned to a certain state committee. But he thinks it might be due to him asking too many questions.
56th District Republican Representative Dave Murphy of Greenville isn’t excited about being left off a committee he’s been serving on for several years.
“Committee assignments were were divvied up earlier this week. I suppose not surprisingly, I am no longer on the Campaign and Elections Committee,” Murphy told WTAQ’s The Regular Joe Show. “I made the most statements about changes that need to be made in our election system.”
However, those statements are what he believes led to him being left off of this year’s roster.
“I called for some rather drastic changes. Things like taking Milwaukee’s vote administration away from them and putting it into someone else’s hands some kind of a ticket agency or something that would oversee that,” Murphy said. “When you have so much corruption going on in a particular area like that, you just can’t allow them to do it like that anymore. It doesn’t change.”
A ‘Stop the Steal’ demonstration is scheduled to head to Washington D.C. next week. While Murphy says he really wishes he would be able to attend, but hasn’t yet been able to get off that day to make the trip.
“Sometimes there’s things that are way more important than what you’re doing in Madison. It’s the ability to stand up and show people that somebody back here in Wisconsin cares about what’s going on with this election, and we’re willing to do something about it,” Murphy said.
