MILWAUKEE, Wis. — After refusing to answer a question on why he voted to overturn the 2020 election results, MAGA Congressman Tom Tiffany eventually told moderators the reason was “Zuckerbucks.”
Moderator: That’s … why you joined efforts to disqualify hundreds of thousands of absentee ballots in Milwaukee and Dane County was “Zuckerbucks”?
Tom Tiffany: Yes. Because… of what happened there.
Here’s the real story:
- Tom Tiffany voted to overturn President Biden’s victory in Pennsylvania and Arizona and said that he would have voted to overturn Wisconsin’s election results if a vote had been held.
- Tiffany was the only Wisconsin Republican to sign the Texas brief that sued to overturn the 2020 election results in four swing states, including Wisconsin.
- Tom Tiffany is still pushing dangerous lies and conspiracy theories about the results of the 2020 election and is actively supporting the Trump administration’s FBI probe into the election.
- Tom Tiffany said defendants convicted in the violent January 6th attacks on the Capitol could “possibly” be owed restitution in the form of taxpayer-funded payouts through Trump’s “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”
- Tom Tiffany has refused to acknowledge that President Biden won the 2020 election several times, including as recently as 2026.
- Tiffany has said that he had no regrets about contesting the election and in 2024, Tiffany spread election conspiracies, falsely suggesting that an elections clerk lied about absentee ballots.
- In 2025, Tiffany faced criticism for attending events with 2020 election denier Michael Flynn.
