Kenosha News: Wisconsin Supreme Court reverses previous decision, allows absentee ballot drop boxes [[link removed]]
To quote the president, John: This "is a big f-ing deal".
The Wisconsin Supreme Court made a key pro-voter ruling and reversed its previous two-year-old decision banning absentee ballot drop boxes . This current, liberal-controlled court made the change from the previous, conservative high court, which banned drop boxes in a highly politicized decision after pressure from opponents of voting rights.
Essentially, the 4-3 ruling means that freestanding, mailbox-like drop boxes — which Wisconsin used effectively, safely, and securely in previous elections — can again be used to collect absentee ballots this fall.
Wisconsin's elected officials are thrilled and ready to comply: “ Allowing eligible voters an accessible and secure way to cast a ballot just makes sense ,” Madison Mayor Satya Rhodes-Conway said. She added that “ Madison is ready to follow the law and promote democracy .”
John: This decision shows how we can win in our fight to defend access to the ballot and increase voter participation across this country. Pitch in $25 or whatever you can today to help defend the use of mail-in ballots, drop boxes, and so many more ways to vote nationwide >> [[link removed]]
