Damn, unmanned drop boxes not allowed in next Wisconsin election. 🤬 🤬 🤬

A Waukesha County judge ruled Thursday afternoon the state elections commission gave illegal advice when it told clerks last year they could set up unmanned drop boxes to collect absentee ballots.

Judge Michael O. Bohren handed down the decision in a case brought by voters Richard Teigen and Richard Thom, who believed the use of drop boxes was in conflict with state law.

Bohren ruled the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) would need to inform clerks its previous guidance was null by January 27. If the ruling stays in place, unmanned drop boxes won't be allowed for the next election in Wisconsin, a primary set for February 15.

1. Waukesha is like Wisconsin's own Florida

Always ready to throw a wrench in the gears of democracy with some bullshit... Anyone remember that Kathy Nickolaus and her private laptop vote count where 'suddenly' a bunch of votes that she 'forgot about' were added to give the (R)'s a narrow win?

2. So a man has to be standing at the drop box?

What if our clerk is a woman?

3. Anything to make voting . . .

as difficult as possible.

Personally, I think there should be more drop boxes and voting should last at least a week.

I'm flabbergasted the the US makes voting so difficult!
