Andrew Iverson, the former director of Donald Trump’s 2020 campaign in Wisconsin, has been appointed as the new executive director of the Republican Party of Wisconsin. His strategic leadership will be instrumental in guiding the party’s efforts for the upcoming 2022 midterm elections.
In his previous role, Iverson was known for his staunch advocacy and commitment to ensuring election integrity. He was a vocal critic of alleged widespread election fraud in Wisconsin during the 2020 presidential campaign, although these claims were later contested.
His dedication to preserving democracy and fighting for justice is evident from his remarks after the 2020 election. “Here’s the drill: Comms is going to continue to fan the flame and get the word out about Democrats trying to steal this election. We’ll do whatever they need (inaudible) help with. Just be on standby in case there’s any stunts we need to pull,” Iverson stated.
Despite Biden’s certified victory by over 20,000 votes surviving recounts and legal challenges, Trump secured a significant number of votes in Wisconsin. As Iverson noted in 2020, “At the end of the day, this operation received more votes than any other Republican in Wisconsin history,”
Iverson was also quick to point out that his comments about the 2020 election were taken out of context. He clarified, “My earnest assessment of each party’s performance in the 2020 election was unfortunately misconstrued due to both a poor choice of words on my part.”
With Iverson at the helm, the Wisconsin Republican Party is poised to make significant strides in both presidential and Senate races. Wisconsin remains a key swing state, and Iverson’s experience and strategic insight will be invaluable.
Wisconsin Republican Party Chairman Brian Schimming lauded Iverson’s appointment, stating that his extensive experience makes him the “right man” to lead the party to victory in 2022 and 2024. “His wide breadth of experience and ability will prove crucial for us winning in November,” Schimming said.
Iverson echoed this sentiment, expressing his eagerness to contribute to the party’s success. “Wisconsin is the cornerstone of the Republican Party’s chances this November,” he said. “I am eager to get to work on behalf of all our candidates to take back the White House and usher in a new era of conservative leadership.”
