This is nuts. The judge moved the receive-by without imposing a postmark date, so both parties could, in theory, see their deficits on 4/7 and go on a six day hunting expedition for votes.

BREAKING: A federal judge declined to postpone Wisc's Tuesday election. But 3 big changes (and story TK):

1) Absentee request deadline is tmmw
2) Ballots count if received by 4 p.m. on 4/13
3) Voters can affirm they couldn't get a witness


I have never seen this before.

There will be widespread fraud Madison, Milwaukee, etc


Allowing for postmarked mailing AFTER Election Day??

So...

Quick count.

Determine deficit.

Go door to door with ballots to get people to fill out.

That sounds like something SCOTUS may be interested in taking a gander at, perhaps?

Crazy, but it's just for the primary, right? If stuff like this happens in the general election then shite's about to get really crooked.

There is a Wisconsin Supreme Court election on 4/7

Between a conservative and a liberal judge

Too late.
Once the vote count is done, does anyone actually think the person who won would be taken out of office at a later date?

Isn't the primary bad enough?? The person you may want to vote for in the general is no longer an option.

Of course it’s in one of states Trump won unexpectedly too.

There will widespread attempts at fraudulent practices. I only hope Trump admin stays on top of this with lawsuits and gets it knocked down

You're stopped from getting a ballot 3 days before the election...but a vote cast 6 days after the election is good.

What could go wrong?

If the American citizens don't band together and find a way to stop it then it's on us. The democrats are not going to just stop cheating from the goodness of their hearts. Such a thing doesn't exist

frick that. Not "just for the primary", or ever. This should never be ok.

They're setting a precedent to use later in the big elections. They fricking can't beat Trump, so they're going to cheat Trump.

If we allow this without bloodshed, we deserve what becomes of us.

There is no way to stop it short of replacing activist judges. And again, they wait til the last minute when it's too late for effective challenges.
