(WHBL) – Republican lawmakers at the Wisconsin Capitol are taking the first step toward killing Wisconsin’s new rules for ballot drop boxes and correcting ballots. The legislature’s rules committee on Monday voted to require the Wisconsin Elections Commission to publish rules for both.
WEC issued informal guidance about drop boxes in 2020, and sent guidance about what’s called ‘curing’ ballots back in 2016. Monday’s vote requires the Elections Commission to make both of those formal by early next month so that lawmakers can then vote them down.
Republicans at the Capitol say both ballot drop boxes and the current ‘curing’ standards are not in-line with state election law.
