Wisconsin is a swing state in the presidential election and they have a very close U.S. Senate election as well and so what do the liberals in Wisconsin, why cheat, of course.
From jsonline: Milwaukee election officials failed to check those registering to
vote for a time this week against a list of felons ineligible to vote,
and the mistake became fodder for a new round of fights over election
rules.
Election workers on Tuesday retroactively checked the 204 people who
registered in Milwaukee on Monday and found that none of the residents
were felons ineligible to vote. But the situation made clear that voting
policies will be ripe for partisan bickering from now until the Nov. 6
election.
A separate dispute Tuesday centered on guidelines that say election
observers should stand at least 6 feet from the table where voters check
in at polling places on election days. Also at issue was a recent
decision by the state Government Accountability Board to allow those
registering to vote on election day to show copies of utility bills or
other proof of residence to poll workers on smartphones.
"We feel this is going to be a contentious voting period," accountability board attorney Mike Haas told the board Tuesday.
Monday marked the first day of early voting
and thousands of people around the state took advantage of it. In
Milwaukee, 2,369 people voted, including the 204 people who registered
to vote that day.
Those registering to vote are to be checked against a list of felons
who are currently under state supervision and ineligible to vote. Those
checks didn't happen in Milwaukee on Monday, according to Neil Albrecht,
director of the Milwaukee Election Commission.
The state Republican Party complained about the issue to the
Government Accountability Board, which runs state elections. The
accountability board told the election commission where it could get the
felon list online, but the election commission did not have the list
loaded onto city computers until late Monday, Albrecht said. http://www.jsonline.com/news/statepolitics/city-officials-failed-to-check-voters-registering-against-felons-list-ro7b2k9-175490511.html
The issue about checking for felons, or not check for them, is a statewide issue, just not Milwaukee.
Let the cheating begin.
