Still doesn’t matter.

They’ll either destroy the video or just refuse to investigate or prosecute.

I say a bottle of lighter fluid and a match in each and every one of them.

Every drop box should have a open bottle of expanding foam dropped in it on top of a sponge filled with ink.

I'm reading the majority opinion now and it's, something.

"¶25 By mandating that an absentee ballot be returned not
to the "municipal clerk's office," but "to the municipal clerk,"
the legislature disclaimed the idea that the ballot must be
delivered to a specific location and instead embraced delivery
of an absentee ballot to a person——the "municipal clerk." Given
this, the question then becomes whether delivery to a drop box
constitutes delivery "to the municipal clerk" within the meaning
of Wis. Stat. § 6.87(4)(b)1.
¶26 We conclude that it does. A drop box is set up,
maintained, secured, and emptied by the municipal clerk.10 This
is the case even if the drop box is in a location other than the
municipal clerk's office. As analyzed, the statute does not
specify a location to which a ballot must be returned and
requires only that the ballot be delivered to a location the
municipal clerk, within his or her discretion, designates. See
Wis. Stat. § 7.15(1)."

Unless I don't know how to read, 7.15(1) says nothing about ballot boxes or allowing ballots to be returned wherever the municipal clerk chooses.

The dissent is pretty good at calling out the fact that the majority made this ruling because it is "Results oriented" for the results the liberals want.

From the dissent:

quote:

¶72 The majority dismisses the relevance of Wis. Stat. § 6.855(1)——and simply ignores Wis. Stat. §§ 5.81(3), 7.41(1), and 6.88(1) and (2)——without ever grappling with the actual statutory text: In person delivery of a ballot can occur only at the municipal clerk's office or a designated alternate site. The majority's argument that the detailed and restrictive statute for the use of alternate sites says nothing about drop boxes because "drop boxes are already allowed" under Wis. Stat. § 6.87(4)(b)1. merely assumes the majority's conclusion rather than proves it. Id., ¶30. Given the detailed restrictions in § 6.855 on the use of alternate sites, the most plausible reading of the statute would preclude unmentioned methods of delivering absentee ballots; otherwise, there would be no reason whatsoever for the legislature to enact textual restrictions. The majority provides no rebuttal to this point....

Although the majority attempts to package its disagreements with Teigen as legal, the truth is obvious: The majority disagrees with the decision as a matter of policy and politics, not law. The members of the majority believe using drop boxes is good policy, and one they hope will aid their preferred political party. Teigen upheld the historical meaning of Wis. Stat. § 6.87(4)(b)1., which bars the use of offsite, unmanned drop boxes. The majority in this case overrules Teigen not because it is legally erroneous, but because the majority finds it politically inconvenient. The majority's activism marks another triumph of political power over legal principle in this court. I dissent.

No real proof of it’s legality either. That’s the beauty of it for Democrats.

Even the ones that didn't know they were voting! Luckily someone else made sure they were able to participate as well in 2020

It's not matter of proof.

It's a matter of system design and risk management.

You have enormous power and wealth at stake in elections combined with thousands of humans involved.
We know that a certain percentage of the population will cheat or engage in crime.

So now we have high motive and certainty of attempted cheating.

As a matter of designing a system to manage this risk, do you want a system that makes cheating easier or harder?

What would happen if someone drops an on fire piece of trash into one of the drop boxes?

Everyone of these boxes needs to be observed and recorded on 4k video. Maybe add off duty police into the process especially for boxes in the most suspect locations.

Gawd you lefties are pathetic. Not having boxes doesn’t prevent anyone from shite. It opens up elections to potential fraud and anyone that doesn’t want potential fraud is against this. We all know you Commicrats want this kind of disorder since y’all are anti-American scum.

Even if this was a move that benefited the Right, we’d be against it. Since you Pinkos would probably find a way to put something in the boxes that would destroy the PAPER ballots in there.

While the group has acknowledged that Wisconsin laws do make clear that absentee ballots must be returned by mail or in person, they raised the question in the case that it remained unclear whether voters can return absentee ballots in person to locations other than a clerk’s office.


Maybe it's just me, but "in person" means you hand it to someone.

In no way do I think dropping something into a unaccompanied box as "in person".

Friendly reminder that this poster spent plenty of time and energy telling us Biden showering with his daughter was a good, reasonable action.

Of course this groomer lives in an alternate reality.
