As Milwaukee County finds more votes for Joe Biden, a lawsuit is challenging the constitutionality of all ballots cast through COVID drop boxes
With the vote certification process engaged, a new lawsuit is threatening to throw a wrench into the process; seeking to block certification, claiming that all ballots cast through drop boxes – an accommodation enacted to safeguard against COVID – are illegally cast ballots. A newly filed lawsuit in the Wisconsin Supreme Court is seeking to block the State of Wisconsin from certifying the November 3, 2020, General Election results. The lawsuit argues that all ballots cast via drop boxes are illegal because the establishment of the boxes themselves was illegal, thus creating a dilution of legal votes cast.
The lawsuit asks the Wisconsin Supreme Court to discard the illegal drop-box ballots, and, if said ballots cannot be identified for rejection, that the state legislature should take charge of the seating process for presidential electors to the Electoral College.
The lawsuit, filed on November 27, 2020, was done so on behalf of Wisconsin voter Dean Mueller. It argues that the Plaintiff’s right to a “safe, free, secure and transparent presidential election” was violated “in that his vote has been diluted by the counting of thousands of illegal votes placed in illegal ballot drop boxes across the State of Wisconsin.”
The lawsuit states that over 500 ballot drop boxes were illegally installed in 72 counties throughout the state in violation of the law. The complaint goes on to state that the Wisconsin Elections Commission did not have the authority, under Wisconsin election law, to establish or approve their use.
The commission’s establishment, approval of, and endorsement of the drop boxes use, the lawsuit states, amounted to unilaterally enacting a new elections law. The US Constitution – along with a reiteration of the provision in the 2000 Bush v. Gore decision – accords such power exclusively to Congress or state legislatures.
I believe that the Wisc SC is liberal in leaning (4-3?). I dont expect this to go anywhere
Neither do I.
It may gain traction at a higher level.
Doesn’t matter, it’s going to SCOTUS eventually............. 😉
Yeah. SCOTUS now leans 5-4 Conservative.
They will have the last say.
I would be hard pressed to believe, without supportive evidence of fraud within these votes that the WI SC will bulk invalidate them...
We will see, but I just don’t think that’s likely, even if they lacked legal authority to set up the boxes, I really don’t think, without evidence of fraud, the courts will toss out all those votes.
We will see.
Nor I ... but I must keep my fingers crossed regardless, until there’s a resolution one way or the other.
What do we need legislatures for if election commissions can make new rules and accommodations that aren’t part of the state’s election laws?
The pandemic did not suspend the US Constitution or State Constitutions. The ballot boxes were a essentially a vote harvesting tool.
No. This summer it shifted from 5-2 Conservative to 4-3 with the addition of a liberal judge, but the conservative members are thought likely to draw tighter together after recent events (i.e. Kenosha riots, and now election fraud).
That’s the Trump lawyers argument..............

Youtube: 12m08s: 29 Nov: Sky News Australia: ‘Host of election oddities’ point to ‘large-scale coup’ to bring down Trump - The Outsiders
Sky News host Rowan Dean says the battle for the Oval Office is “still actually heating up”.
“Overnight we learned that Pennsylvania looks like going to the Supreme Court,” he said.
One Pennsylvania judge has said the Trump team has a “likelihood to succeed” in giving state legislators the power to choose the members of the electoral college.
“If we are all honest, many of us know deep down that the election was dodgy,” Mr Dean said.
“The sheer scale of the alleged coup, because that’s what we’re really talking about, leaves many people simply too terrified to believe that the left in their hatred of Trump could really be so corrupt”.
Mr Dean also said a short clip shows President Trump’s vote fall by 20,000 votes on CNN during the calling of the results.

VIDEO: 7min: 26 Nov: Sky News Australia: Trump should ‘continue legal fight’ because there is ‘industrial scale fraud’ - ***Alan Jones Show
Eminent law professor David Flint says President Donald Trump should continue his legal fight for as long as he can because not only is there industrial scale voter fraud at hand, but also the question of unequal protection of voters.
“It’s not just fraud, and the fraud is not just self-evident, it would be self-evident to a rookie journalist,” Professor Flint told Sky News host Alan Jones.
“I can’t understand why journalists are throwing around the word ‘unsubstantiated’ when they didn’t in relation to the many charges made against President Trump.” Professor Flint said there is “not only fraud – which is on an industrial scale” but there is also the question of “unequal protection, and that is that voters are being treated differently”.
“There’s been a lot of unlawful changes to the electoral laws, the power to change the laws is vested in the state legislators and it’s often forgotten that they have a primary role,” he said.
“But governors and secretaries of state have tried to change the laws, it’s ineffective.”

***sadly, Alan Jones goes off on 8 weeks vacation at the end of the coming week, so he will not be there to see the election through. Rowan Dean, from the first video link, will take over Alan’s show for 2 of those weeks, I believe.
apart from Jones & Dean & a couple of others, Murdoch’s Sky News channel - like Fox News - is almost an exact replica of all the FakeNewsMSM channels in the US and elsewhere.
... Wisc SC,,,

Last I knew, we had a 1 Justice majority.
Last election (April 2020) saw what many of us think was a voting machine finesse that gave the election to a D when all indications were that the R was favored.
We had the drop boxes in CA. No way they’ll be considered unconstitutional.. even at the SC. Unmatched signatures and not being on voter rolls is a better tack.
Due to COVID-19, your right to a free and fair election have been terminated...
SCOTUS could care less about timing, invalidating votes and all the rest of the cnn msm talking points. In this case, itâÂÂs simple: did Wisconsin election officials have the right to arbitrarily change the process, and has that change resulted in denial of rights for petitioners. If so they could easily invalidate all of those mail in drop box votes. And rightfully so.
Everything is now a preparation for SCOTUS
Despite what this suit is trying to achieve, WOW counties used drop boxes in courthouses that had slot to drop off from outside. Most of those votes were likely DJT votes. Invalidating all of those votes would increase the HarrisBiden vote by a big number
