A Republican-led Assembly panel took testimony Wednesday from a felon convicted of mail and bank fraud who is now conducting his own investigation of the 2020 election.Peter Bernegger, a New London resident who was convicted on fraud charges in 2009 and served prison time, has been conducting his review using a combination of state voter lists and local election data. He claimed to state lawmakers that thousands of “fake voters” cast ballots in Wisconsin, but he declined repeated requests to show his evidence.The 2020 election has already been heavily scrutinized in Wisconsin, a state where President Joe Biden defeated former President Donald Trump by 20,682 votes. Biden’s victory was affirmed by a partial recount as well as multiple state and federal court decisions, and a review by the nonpartisan Legislative Audit Bureau found no evidence of widespread fraud.
