+1. In my small town of 26,000 in Wisconsin there’s only 1 polling place open. I’m so glad I voted absentee but so upset for those who have basically had their voting rights taken away. This is an atrocity.

There are five polling places open in Milwaukee. FIVE. For a city of nearly 600k. That also has a mayoral election on top of the SCOWI race and Pres primary.




How is this constitutional to go forward w an election during a pandemic and to only have five polling places for 600k people???


It’s not certain they will have poll workers to operate the mere five sites. What happens if the polls don’t open?

The GOP retains control of the state supreme court and extends the gerrymandering and other awful policies within the state.

I’m pretty well convinced that Roberts is on the take now.

The governor needs to use the national guard to enforce the stay at home order. No election. To ask people to both do their civic duty by voting and do their civic duty by staying home is insane.

Will the Secretary of State - a Democrat - abide by the ruling? He could argue that the Governor & public safety preempted the court ruling. SoS does not need to certify results or even open the polls.

Courts can’t send anyone in to work the polls or count ballots.

The GOP is happily trying to kill off as many people as they can. For them there is no contradiction in these conflicting goals.

This is akin to an act of domestic terrorism. Take the gloves off, Tony!

Oh please. Evers has no one to blame but himself for this. Mere days ago he said he couldn’t postpone the election because it’d be illegal.


And then there was a Federal Emergency declared. It changed the facts on the ground.

Meanwhile, the state courts are closed. So the State Supreme Court did this remotely? How quaint.

Umm, the Federal Emergency was declared weeks ago. Evers tweeted on April 1st that he wouldn’t change the election date because doing so would break the law.

I’m not even saying I disagree that the election shouldn’t be held tomorrow. But again, Evers has no one to blame for this but himself. Cancelling the election at the 11th hour, AFTER he said literally five days ago that doing so would be illegal and he wouldn’t do it, is just piss poor, TERRIBLE leadership.

Nah, “terrible leadership” is the Republican death cult that controls the WI legislature and Supreme Court

The GOP will use their ill-gained court seat to strip Dem Gov. Evers of his power to veto another decade of gerrymanders in 2021 just like the GOP legislature stripped him of powers in a lame-duck session before he took office.

Read the comments — this is what voter suppression looks like.

Yep. And what were other leaders saying 5 days ago? Hard to keep up which leaders took this seriously, which leaders said it would go away, or we would have herd immunity ... again, confusion is being filtered down from the top.

Could they do drive through voting? Similar to the drive through testing for coronavirus. Have the poll workers wear PPE and tell voters to bring their own pens. Maybe then more poll workers would be willing to work and they'd have enough locations open?

Not everyone has a car.

And, how would that work for the 50,000 people expected to vote in Milwaukee? Line up 30,000 cars where to do this?
