University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire police were searching for a suspect accused of violently turning over the college GOP’s election information table, multiple sources tell The Federalist. The attack, chronicled on social media, came as Wisconsinites vote in a nationally watched, politically charged state Supreme Court election that will determine whether conservatives or liberals control the Badger State’s court of last resort.
Tatiana Bobrowicz, chairwoman of the campus College Republicans, tells The Federalist that police have confirmed the suspect is José Felipe Alvergue, associate professor and chairman of the university’s English Department. Bobrowicz said law enforcement officials were still looking for Alvergue this afternoon and had planned to cite him with disorderly conduct. UW-Eau Claire police did not immediately return a request for comment.
