Top Wisconsin court blocks governor’s move to delay election

Wisconsin’s conservative Supreme Court has ruled that Democratic Gov. Tony Evers could not postpone the state’s presidential primary, striking down his order to move the election to June over coronavirus outbreak fears.
The court ruled 4-2 that Evers lacked the authority to move the election on his own. The decision means the election will occur as originally scheduled on Tuesday.
The Wisconsin election is being viewed as a national test case in a broader fight over voter access in the age of the coronavirus with major implications for the presidential primary contests ahead and, possibly, the November general election.

He was just elected in 2018, not running. This is for presidential primary and probably some other state elections:

And this is why they are fricking with the WI SC election tomorrow. If Kelly gets re-elected to a full term Evers and the dems are fuct for years.

I can’t get over Democrats acting like pushing buttons on a voting machine will put people at risk. You’re more likely to die in your car on the way there

It’s more that they don’t have people to staff polling places. I think they only have 5 polling places in all of Milwaukee

More like they can’t find enough bus drivers for Dem GOTV efforts.

Btw the US Supreme Court threw out the provision that absentee ballots could be postmarked a week late, by a 5-4 vote

The Borg aimed for perfection.
Democrats aim for subjection.

I mean the gov is enlisting the national guard to staff polling stations

Nice.
Unsurprisingly, I had not come across this news yet.
This place really is up to the minute.

Especially since most poll workers are senior citizens and shouldn't be exposed to hundreds of people in one day.

Why does Wisconsin not have provisions for moving an election date for an emergency?
I know they don't have hurricanes but that's not the only thing that can happen.

You would think the dems would want as many people to die as possible since the dead always vote Democrat.
