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 >>
