They did extend the vote by mail. Don’t know how much good the extension will do though for many voters. But I agree with everything else you said.

Nope. Not extended.

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.

The court ruling forces the absentee to be returned/postmarked tomorrow, not the 13th as had been extended. There are literally balloted being sent to people now, who haven't receieved them yet, who will not be able to turn them in.

Omg that’s crazy.

I mean, Evers himself preemptively declared his action illegal literally three days ago. I’m surprised the WI Supreme Court didn’t rule 6-0 against him.

He did. He declared an emergency cancellation of the in-person election tomorrow but the state Supreme Court struck it down. Not being snarky— I don’t know what else he can do? What do you think?

+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???

Important if you are in Wisconsin

This is awful. However, they did extend the absentee ballot deadline and will now accept absentee ballots until April 13.

It's Wisconsin.

Wisconsin has elections in April every year. “Statewide Spring Election” for state races like the Supreme Court, presidential primaries in the years that have them, and local races like mayors and town council. Those people are always elected in April. I don’t know why we do it this way but it’s always been like this.
