Wisconsin Supreme Court Reinstates Unstaffed Drop Boxes Ahead Of 2024 Election |
2024-07-06 |
[ZERO] In a 4-3 decision that reverses their own 2022 prohibition on unmanned dropboxes, the justices agreed with Democrats who argued that the Wisconsin Supreme Court had previously misinterpreted the law in its 2022 ruling, and wrongly concluded that absentee ballots can only be returned to a clerk in their office, and not to a drop box that is located elsewhere. "What if we just got it wrong?" said Justice Jill Karofsky during May arguments. "What if we made a mistake? Are we now supposed to just perpetuate that mistake into the future?" Attorneys representing Republican backers of the 2022 ruling argued that there have been no changes in the facts or the law to warrant overturning the ruling that's less than two years old.

#4 Even though Trump is up 2% in the aggregate and will have a solid lead by November, expect him to lose by a few points when the votes are "counted" |

#1 This is why the elected judiciate is so important. Wisconsin elected a far left loon to their Supreme Court in 2022, using a LOT of outside money and 'resources', which broke the conservative majority. |
