In Wisconsin, Republican lawmakers are refusing to accept the voters will.
Instead of preparing to work with Gov.-elect Tony Evers, a Democrat, Republicans are furiously working to undercut his authority as well as that of incoming Attorney General Josh Kaul, also a Democrat.
In the wee hours of Wednesday morning, the Republican-controlled Legislature passed bills that affect gubernatorial appointments to agencies as well as the governors ability to make any changes to the states strict voter ID laws or change work requirements for food stamps.
Another measure limits the attorney generals ability to decide which laws to challenge. Legislators also voted to curtail advanced voting to within two weeks of an election, even though a court ruled a similar provision unconstitutional.
