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.
