Should some students be voting at their permanent residence? Back when I lived out of state for college in the 1980s I voted absentee. When I was an election officer nearly 20 years ago, I saw students vote absentee.

As usual, the Republicans made sure out-of-area/state students are able to vote locally:

At the Wisconsin Republican state convention in June, for example, a resolution was proposed to call on the Legislature to draft a bill that would require students to vote absentee in their home communities, thereby limiting their electoral influence in college towns. But the proposal was shut down amid opposition from GOP chairs of Dane and Milwaukee counties.

It does appear that the Republicans want the Democrats to win.
