Wisconsin Democrats chair bashes Supreme Court decision on voting: 'I am about to explode'
The Hill ^ | 04 06 2020 | John Bowden

The chair of Wisconsin's state Democratic Party on Monday blasted a U.S. Supreme Court decision that required all absentee ballots be posted by Tuesday to be counted in the state's election.

Ben Wikler tweeted Monday afternoon that he was "about to explode" after the Supreme Court reversed a lower court's ruling ordering the state to accept absentee ballots sent any time before April 13, a move that was initially meant to expand participation in the primary during the coronavirus outbreak.

"I am about to explode. The five GOP US Supreme Court justices just overruled two lower courts and shut off extended absentee voting in Wisconsin," he tweeted.

"The Supreme Court of the United States legislated from the bench today, following Trump team's orders and writing a new election law to disenfranchise untold thousands of Wisconsin voters and consign an unknown number of Wisconsinites to their deaths," he added. "This is now etched into history. Donald Trump doesn't care how many of his followers die—and how many people they infect and kill—if it helps him maintain power."

demtard socialists can’t stuff the ballot boxes with fake absentee votes from dead, fictitious, illegal aliens, and voting in place of incoherent older relatives.

Why would Trump give a hang about Democrat voters voting in a Democrat primary?

What? You mean the SCOTUS, in keeping with all past decisions, says that the rules that a primary starts with must continue throughout the primary?

How outrageous. Amazing that liberals are eager to open up this Pandora’s box after the lid’s been nailed shut multiple times. But hey, if you REALLY wanna play this game, keep prying. We can change the rules for any election for any reason under the liberal plan.

You could not write a paper on what is meant by "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" without including this "brilliant" quote...

If there was ever an example of why the "ballot" box will not free this Nation from this constant insanity, this is it...

The tree awaits... Patiently... Confidently...

Saying it was Trump’s demand is slander and typical misdirection.

It is a good sign that the court understands the democrat’s process of ballet harvesting.

The Supreme Court is saying that elections belong in the hands of elected officials and legislations. Judges have no business taking control of this process. No more Election 2000’s.
