Yesterday, @GovEvers called a legislative special session for 4pm today and urged the GOP legislative leaders, @SpeakerVos and @SenFitzgerald, to pass a bill delaying Tuesday's election until May 19 and mailing every registered voter a ballot. It is now 4pm. 1/
It is now 4:21pm. Per @patrickdmarley's in-person reporting, not a single Republican senator showed up. The special session lasted 5 seconds. The assembly session is expected to begin soon, and end similarly. The GOP leadership just flunked its test.
And now it's official: GOP Assembly, led by Robin Vos, is refusing to heed the governor's call to postpone and mail ballots in an election Tuesday where dozens of poll workers and hundreds or thousands of in-person voters are likely to have COVID-19.
