Wisconsin Absentee Ballots Locked In | Roanoke News

Published 1 week, 5 days ago
Description

Wisconsin voters who’ve already mailed in their absentee ballots can’t undo them — a judge just shut down Democratic efforts to allow ballot “spoiling” amid a chaotic governor’s race. With over 117,000 ballots already returned and candidates dropping out and re-entering, Democrats hoped for a do-over to prevent disenfranchisement. But the court sided with election officials, ruling the state law doesn’t permit changing ballots after they’re sent back — and blocked any attempt to halt enforcement. The ruling adds more tension as Democrats race to hold onto the governor’s seat and flip the legislature ahead of the general election.
