Michael Gableman, head of 2020 Wisconsin election review, says he does not understand how elections work jsonline.com/story/news/pol… via @patrickdmarley and @natalie_eilbert
@patrickdmarley @natalie_eilbert Taxpayers are spending $676,000 for the review launched by Assembly Republicans.
@patrickdmarley @natalie_eilbert "Most people, myself included, do not have a comprehensive understanding or even any understanding of how elections work," Gableman said in an interview late Tuesday before addressing the Green Bay City Council.
@patrickdmarley @natalie_eilbert Gableman served subpoenas to five mayors today to testify at his rented office space in Brookfield on Oct. 22. Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway says "If I'm gonna go to Brookfield and answer questions in a strip mall, it should be open to the public."

1 in 14 migrant workers at a northern WI green bean plant died of COVID after company officials and gov regulators failed to take critical measures to protect employees during one of the deadliest outbreaks in the US food processing industry jsonline.com/in-depth/news/… via @mariajpsl
@mariajpsl Journal Sentinel investigation shows that neither Seneca Foods nor local health officials tested all workers—even those living in company barracks — or interviewed them to do contact tracing. The company also didn’t monitor for obvious symptoms or isolate all those who became ill
@mariajpsl The Journal Sentinel tracked down 22 workers, talked with 21 family members and reviewed hundreds of pages of public records to document what happened to workers of one of America’s largest packaged vegetable companies, which produces Green Valley and Libby's brand green beans.

Assembly and Senate leaders @jimsteineke and @SenatorKapenga on special session: “This is a thinly-veiled political maneuver by the Governor. We intend to gavel out this unserious stunt.”
@jimsteineke @SenatorKapenga "If the Governor were serious about the proposals he packed into this bill, he could fund each one of them today with the mountain of federal funds at his direct disposal," they said in a statement.
@jimsteineke @SenatorKapenga Finance committee co-chairs @SenMarklein and @repborn: "The Governor says this special session is about BadgerCare, but this bill is nothing more than a mini budget advanced by the Governor because he didn’t get his way through the normal budget process."
