Thanks for that. In the several articles I have read, they did not adequately clarify that the Repub legislature, not the Govna, can only delay the election. Of course the Repubs will not delay, as they are challenging even absentee changes.
The mechanics of this election are something this nation has not seen since the mobs with guns days of KY in 1855. Evers has called out the Nat Guard to man at least some polls since Milwaukee (180 polling places) is expected to only have a dozen polls open. More than 100 of the state’s municipalities reported that they lacked enough regular poll workers to staff even one polling place.
Gerrymandering and active election tampering in WI. Repubs are correct that Dems in cities will not vote in person due to COVID, and rural Repubs will vote since many do not believe in COVID. I hope they can all get absentee.
Edit: Politico just had an article describing how the Trump campaign is fighting all ease of voting proposals by Dems (WI, PA GA, etc.) even in times of pandemic. What a surprise.
Late Update: (WaPo) A federal appeals court on Friday declined to block extended absentee voting deadlines challenged by Repubs for Wisconsin’s presidential primary. So at least WI can have ‘hurried’ absentee balloting.
