BREAKING: Wisconsin judge rules drop boxes are illegal, WIsconsin Elections Commission (WEC) gave unlawful guidance in 2020 election npr.org/2022/01/13/107… #wiright #dropboxes
Judge Bohren ruled that the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC) guidance documents on absentee ballot drop boxes, issued in 2020, should have gone through the rules process.
WEC advice was contrary to state law. Voting is a constitutional right, but state law makes clear that, “voting by absentee ballot is a privilege exercised wholly outside the traditional safeguards of the polling place.”

Amazing @janemayer story at @CapTimes IdeasFest where she reveals that Greg Koch told her in 2010 that his Dad was on the Hindenburg.

“Really, why was he on the Hindenburg?”

“Because he had business with Germany.”

Nazi Germany, that is.

Good question from Maraniss: “Why doesn’t the left have their own Kochs?”

@janemayer - “They got complacent and didn’t think these guys in Wichita were a threat.”

She says @davidaxelrod DIDN’T KNOW WHO THEY WERE in 2010. DC Dems still shrug today.

Mayer brings up Powell Memo, which said that corporations had to take over the courts, the pulpits, the colleges and universities, and create “think tanks” to sell the BS.

Their alt universe must be smashed.

populous cities." - he is admitting he/CTCL/NVAHI only targeted Democrat-leaning voting areas.

Some Big Questions to answer on how City of Green Bay Wisconsin handled this election:
Why were anti-Trump mayoral staff involved in processing the absentee ballots at the KI Center?
Did the Mayor and his staff violate state law in running the election? #maga #wiright #GreenBay
Green Bay's City Clerk was on a leave of absence. Under Stat 62.09(5) when a municipal officer is temporarily unable to do their duties, the governing body (city council) may appoint a person to discharge the officer's duties until the officer returns.
Did the Green Bay City Council ever vote on an Acting City Clerk? Or did the Mayor's Office simply take over the running of the election. The Green Bay Mayor is Eric Genrich, a former Democrat State Assemblyman from 2013 to 2019.
