Good.
MADISON, Wis. — A divided Wisconsin Supreme Court on Friday denied a request from the state elections commission to keep absentee ballot drop boxes in place through the April 5 election for local offices.
That means that after Tuesday’s primary, drop boxes located outside of local election clerks’ offices will be illegal and no one other than the voter will be allowed to return an absentee ballot.
Remember that this is not about whether drop boxes are good or not. They may be in certain cases. This is about whether election officials can make up the rules for themselves instead of following the laws passed by the legislature. If the liberals want drop boxes, I suggest that they propose a bill so we can have a proper public debate.
It’s embarrassing that this has to go through the court systems. It’s not allowed in the state statutes… It should have been rejected with prejudice before even scheduling a hearing date.
Whoa, this has to be a racist decision. I mean how can we expect minorities and women to follow the same rules as those uppity white privilege bigots? Next thing those white conservatives on the Wisconsin Supreme Court will expect women and people of color to actually prove who they are with an ID.
Shame on them white racists.
Dead Democrat voters will be very disappointed with this decision.
And the spirits say: “We need absentee ba-a-llot bo-o-o-oxes. We must vote De-e-mo-o-o cra-a-a-t!”
Like clockwork, Madison mayor decries this ruling as RACIST. What a moron, the city full of morons deserves her.
What are the odds Dane and Milwaukee counties ignore the ruling and collect from those boxes anyway? Like with voting in the parks all they have to do is quickly combine them with other ballots and then, magically, they can’t be separated without invalidating all. Can’t do that…
