GRAND CHUTE, WI (WTAQ) — A conservative law firm has issued a new complaint to the Wisconsin elections commission.
Thomas More Society Special Counsel Erick Kaardal says that an elderly and cognitively impaired Grand Chute woman, Sandra Klitzke, has been voting in the past several elections despite a court order preventing her from doing so.
“Someone’s voting for Mrs. Klitzke,” said Kaardal. “It’s not a family member. It’s not a friend. It’s someone, maybe staff at the facility or someone else.”
Klitzke, who is in a nursing home, has been sent a ballot for the April 5th election in spite of the no-vote order issued by an Outagamie County Judge. According to myvote.wi.gov, she voted in the 2020 Presidential Election and the April 2021 election as well.
Footage of Klitzke was used by Special Counsel Mike Gableman when presenting his findings on the 2020 election to lawmakers in Madison.
“I like Sandra Klitzke a lot, she’s my client,” Kaardal told WTAQ. “But she doesn’t have the capacity to vote, and it’s in her interest not to be voted for. That’s voter fraud. That’s elder abuse.”
The Judge handed down the no-vote order in February of 2020. Kaardal says the order isn’t common, with only about 820 such orders in the state of Wisconsin.
The complaint was filed Thursday. Kaardal says the purpose of the complaint is to urge the Wisconsin Elections Commission to act, and fix what he called a broken system.
“I haven’t been authorized to investigate the particular circumstances. We just want to get the government fixed,” Kaardal says.
The Thomas More Society has been involved in a number of election related lawsuits over the past two years. The legal group is based in Chicago.
