Eric Hovde (R) conceded in his race against Sen. Tammy Baldwin (D-WI) in a video posted to X, continuing to level false claims related to the processing of absentee ballots in Milwaukee, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Sadi Hovde: “I have heard from numerous supporters urging me to challenge the election results. However, without a detailed review of all the ballots and their legitimacy, which will be difficult to obtain in the courts, a request for a recount would serve no purpose, because you will just be recounting the same ballots, regardless of their integrity. As a result, and my desire to not add to political strife through a contentious recount, I’ve decided to concede the election.”
