Wisconsin Supreme Court Reversed Themselves – Now Approve Widespread Use of Mail-In Ballot Collection Drop Boxes
The Conservative Treehouse - The Last Refuge ^ | July 6, 2024 | Sundance

Once you see the strings on the marionettes you can never watch the performance and not see them.

Last weekend James Clyburn visited 10 key ballot counting precincts in Wisconsin {link}.  On Friday George Stephanopoulos interviewed Joe Biden from Wisconsin {link}. Today, the media is full of the story about how the Wisconsin Supreme Court has reversed its own prior ruling and will now expand the use of ballot collection boxes.

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled Friday that officials can place ballot drop boxes around their communities in this fall’s elections, overturning its own ruling two years ago limiting their use in the presidential swing state.

The court limited the use of drop boxes in July 2022, ruling then that they could be placed only in local election clerks’ offices and no one other than the voter could return a ballot in person.

Conservatives controlled the court at that time, but Janet Protasiewicz’s election victory in April 2023 flipped the court to liberal control. Seeing an opening, Priorities USA, a progressive voter mobilization group, asked the court in February to revisit the decision.

At least 29 other states allow for absentee ballot drop boxes, according to the U.S. Vote Foundation, and expanded use in Wisconsin could have major implications in the presidential race.

Wisconsin again figures to be a crucial swing state after President Joe Biden barely won it in 2020 and Donald Trump narrowly took it in 2016. Democrats believe that making it easier to vote absentee will boost turnout for their side. (more)

In 2017 California hired former Attorney General Eric Holder to oversee the Secretary of State office creating a new voter registration link to the Dept of Motor Vehicles.

In the midterm election of 2018, the first California widespread mail-in ballot program was used.  California Republicans won races on election day, then lost massive seats in the days and weeks that followed.

CALIFORNIA – […] Five California counties—Madera, Napa, Nevada, Sacramento, and San Mateo—implemented a new model of conducting elections for the first time in 2018. In these counties, every registered voter was mailed a ballot, and voters had the option of returning their ballot by mail, at a ballot drop box, or any vote center open in their county.

All five counties exceeded the statewide turnout rate of 64.5%.  All five counties saw voter turnout that was higher than the county average during statewide gubernatorial general elections during the previous 20 years.  (FULL DATA)

What is a representative from South Carolina doing in Wisconsin on June 28 and 29, visiting ten key ballot counting precincts in three key cities, Madison, Milwaukee and Beloit?

The timing here is not coincidental.

Tuesday July 2nd

Ballots in the mail are apparently very important to My Vote Wisconsin.

Once you see the strings on the marionettes, you can never return to that moment in the performance when you did not see them.

“Why aren’t Wisconsin Republicans making an all-out evert to provide ballots boxes and harvest their own?”

Do you really think the GOP establishment wants Trump to win?

Add in the fact that they haven’t legalized faggabis in Wisconsin yet. So there will probably be a ballot initiative or pro legal faggabis candidate to get the potheads out to the mailbox, and of course they will check the box for Biden and Cannabala Horseface along the way.

The Democrats can make sure that 100% of their voters will vote due to ballot harvesting. Even if 90% of the Republicans vote, we’re still missing out on thousands of votes. It’s a different game now.

Repubs should stuff the boxes while wearing Guy Faulks masks. I mean stuff to overflowing. No cell phones. Illustrating the absurdity of it is the only way to stop it.

In Britain, the ULEZ cameras are being cut down by vigilantes. Wouldn’t be surprised to see that sort of thing break out against “unmonitored” ballot drop boxes.

i guess that's where the 15m+ illegals will be dropping off their ballots.

it's illegal... but only if someone enforces the laws.

so much for voting.

If the Wisconsin legislature had any balls, which they don’t (Robin Vos), they’d remove all funding to the WI supreme court.

“They’ve made their decision, now let them enforce it.”

The RNC would have to put eyes in front of those boxes across the state 24/7! And we’re not talking about ordinary eyes but hired security guards video taping every person who deposits ballots in those boxes. I guarantee you if that happens the Wisconsin Supreme Court will call that intimidation and dismiss any law suits. Let’s face it folks the fix is TRULY in. Trump doesn’t have a prayer in Wisconsin. Remove that state out of the column. Now you know why the cadaver is all smiles … not even sweating it. He knows the evil rats have his back and they’ll fix the WIN for him once again.

Well,scratch Wisconsin off DJT’s win list.

Yup. Only a Trump ballot-harvesting system already in place could change that, and Ronna McDaniel spent the last few years not worrying about that.

Isn’t it the legislature that should be making such determinations, and not the judiciary?

There is absolutely nothing stopping the WI legislature - which has a Republican majority in both houses - from passing a state law forbidding the use of ballot drop boxes and mail-in ballots. Except stupidity, complacence and complicity.

Then it would seem the GOP constituents are equally complacent. Thanks.

Then we play by their rules and stuff twice as many ballots. Canvas the blue cities and nursing homes and get their signatures NOW

Thank you for referencing that article E. Pluribus Unum.

"Wisconsin Supreme Court Reversed Themselves – Now Approve Widespread Use of Mail-In Ballot Collection Drop Boxes"


Noting the zero tolerance "hair trigger" wording of Section 2 of the 14th Amendment (14A), that section a penalty for states where ballot box fraud has occurred, this action by the Wisconsin Supreme Court arguably predicts an election year violation of Section 2 imo, that section a penalty for any state where ballot box fraud has occurred.

This action by Wisconsin Supreme Court could wrongly weaken the constitutionally enumerated voting power of Wisconsin voters in November imo.

The legislature needs to man-up and shut this down now. They are the only ones with the authority to set the standards for a federal election in a state. They need to act like it.

“all-out evert to provide ballots boxes and harvest their own?”

Two problems.

One. Conservative votes historically have been more likely to vote than liberal voters. That is why registered voter polls always had better results for Democrats than likely voters. It they counted eligible voters; it would be even more skewed.

Two. Conservatives are much less likely to cheat like going into nursing homes and voting for people. Also, cheating is ignored in Democrat jurisdictions. It is their religion. They are going to be surprised judgment day.

Get ballot box watchers and run video on the ballot boxes.

sign up the illegals to vote, give them a bag of weed for a ballot and punched out for straight up Republicans. Vote early and vote often. It is better than a $50 million dollar ad buy.
