AMSubject: Wisconsin's Supreme Court
Ruling
John --
In a major win for election integrity, the Wisconsin
Supreme Court affirmed that ballot drop boxes and ballot harvesting
are ILLEGAL.
The WisGOP has long opposed these
practices, as they go against the letter of the law, create
opportunities for fraud, and undermine confidence in our elections. We
even joined the RNC and NRSC in an amicus
brief in this
case.
We’ve fought tooth-and-nail to make
sure that our elections are run in accordance with the law. We’re
finally starting to see our hard work pay off, and today’s decision is
a major step in ensuring that Democrats will be forced into a fair
fight that holds them accountable for their record. But
we know that the Democrats won’t let up, and neither should
we.
To make sure that we further
prevent practices that undermine election integrity, here’s you can
do:
-
Volunteer to elect a Republican governor this fall.
The Legislature passed a
number of election integrity bills this session that were VETOED by Tony
Evers. We need to elect a Republican governor who will sign these
bills and make election integrity a priority. You can sign up to
volunteer on our website here.
-
Join your county party to stay apprised of
opportunities to secure election integrity in your community. The
WisGOP worked with county parties to recruit a record 5,000 poll
workers for the 2022 election cycle.
-
Support our Election
Reform Fund to make sure
that we’re ready for anything that the Democrats throw our way from
now until November.
In 2020, the WisGOP took a variety
of legal
actions, often with
partners at the RNC and the Trump campaign, aimed at forcing various
election officials to carry out the law, promoting election
uniformity, and stopping the Democrats from exploiting election laws
for their benefit. In the event that any legal action is required to
help ensure that our election laws are followed, our Election
Reform Fund supports
those efforts.
As always, thank you for your
support.
- Team WisGOP
