Is Wisconsin open or closed?

Hi Nikos,

If true (and I have no reason to believe otherwise at this point), this is rather troubling:

Pennsylvania delegates will go to convention “uncommitted”
email | 3/24/16 | PA GOP

There is also a thread that while Trump won LA, Cruz has an in with the delegates and managed to get most of them on his side.

Sounds like Trump’s org needs to get in with the delegates and/or make sure he has support of them in each state.

Closed, but- voters can register on election day at the polling location by providing proof of current residency. However- voter ID is not required, so proving eligibility by simply providing data where one lives, if done without substantiating ID, seems counter intuitive to protecting the process.

What’s to stop every single illegal alien living in Wisconsin, from going to the polls and voting by providing a copy of their auto insurance invoice or utility bill that bears their address. Hello?

A national voter/voting regulation that provides proof positive of one’s citizenship and identification for voting purposes is long overdue. Why hasn’t this been done already. Oh yeah- the uni-party doesn’t want it implemented.

UPDATE- I used the Wisconsin State General Accounting Board website’s data for inferring an opinion (in my original post) which did not include requirements found at the official Wisconsin Voter Information page. Further research revealed an ID is required and is apparently a rather recent change in voter laws for Wisconsin, and I might add- for the better.

http://bringit.wi.gov/do-i-have-right-photo-id

•A Wisconsin DOT-issued driver license, even if driving privileges are revoked or suspended
•A Wisconsin DOT-issued identification card
•A Wisconsin DOT-issued identification card or driver license without a photo issued under the religious exemption
•Military ID card issued by a U.S. uniformed service
•A U.S. passport
•An identification card issued by a federally recognized Indian tribe in Wisconsin (May be used even if expired before the most recent general election.)

NEW: A veteran’s photo identification card issued by the Veterans Health Administration of the federal Department of Veterans Affairs
•A certificate of naturalization that was issued not earlier than two years before the date of an election at which it is presented
•A driving receipt issued by Wisconsin DOT (valid for 45 days)
•An identification card receipt issued by Wisconsin DOT (valid for 45 days)
•A photo identification card issued by a Wisconsin accredited university, college or technical college that contains date of issuance, signature of student, and an expiration date no later than two years after date of issuance. Also, the university, college or technical college ID must be accompanied by a separate document that proves enrollment.
•A citation or notice of intent to revoke or suspend a Wisconsin DOT-issued driver license that is dated within 60 days of the date of the election.
