MADISON, Wis. (CBS 58) -- Assembly Speaker Robin Vos doesn't believe unfounded claims the that election was stolen are considered conspiracy theories, despite for months acknowledging Joe Biden is the president.
Speaker Vos' comments come days after Michael Gableman, former Supreme Court justice hired by Vos to investigated the 2020 election, revealed several staffers on his payroll. Some include conspiracy theorists and others have close ties to former President Donald Trump.
Despite all the evidence, Vos said he doesn't believe the unproven and baseless claims of a stolen election is considered a conspiracy theory.
"I think people put ideas forward, sometimes they are proven to be true, sometimes they are not proven to be true, but I wouldn't say they are conspiracy theories," Vos said to CBS 58.
"Because, especially early on, many people felt -- and probably still a sizable number in the country -- feel that the election was stolen," Vos added.
When asked if Vos firmly believes the election was stolen, he responded by saying "Joe Biden is the president."
"We are not going to undo the 2020 election, but I do think there are major problems that need to be fixed," said Vos.
Republican elected officials in Wisconsin continue to cast doubts on the election results almost a year after Congress counted the electoral votes making Joe Biden the next president.
