      Republican. Pretty easy to guess, but they should start putting that in the headline. I guess they got their click from me, but now I can save others from doing the same.

      What he did was illegal and a deliberate attempt to subvert democracy. Statistics show that early voters tend to be Democratic-leaning, and he wanted to suppress their vote. We can’t let that happen.

      Double-check your registration, double-check your dropbox or polling location, and vote blue

      Should be cooling his heels in a jail cell waiting for his trial.

      From now on, just assume literally anything Republicans say anyone else is doing is something they want to do

      So we can take everyone’s guns and store them inside government buildings for safe keeping, and Republicans will be cool with that, right? It’s okay, your guns are still safe! We just took them all for right now and are preventing you from using them.

      >The Wisconsin Elections Commission shared in its guidance a reference to Wisconsin Statute 12.60(1)(a), which states that anyone who “by abduction, duress, or any fraudulent device or contrivance, impede(s) or prevent(s) the free exercise of the franchise at an election” could be guilty of a Class I felony. The Commission urged clerks to contact law enforcement if anyone tampers with, defaces, destroys, unlawfully empties, or interrupts, impedes or prevents the use of a drop box.

      His argument is that the drop box was not bolted down, therefor not “installed”… so he moved it inside the building.

      As mayor, however, his duty was to ensure that it got bolted down… not illegally removed.

      He should be arrested and charged, and let a court decide if he was acting under color of office.

      As a voter in Wisconsin, I’m not taking any changes this year, I’m voting in person on election day.

      They aren’t even pretending to not be trying to cheat. This is what worries me the most; I am fairly sure Harris will win the popular vote, probably by a lot, but will the many trump courts, especially the Supreme Court simply wiggle their way into outright stealing the election if she also wins the EC, but by a small margin? It is nightmare fuel.

      How come the DOJ does nothing about this it’s happening everywhere.

      We’re about to see a lot of Republicans complain about election interference while committing election interference.

      The election interference fuckary is only going to get worse if swift charges aren’t brought against idiots like this.

      They’re going to keep pushing the envelope on voter suppression and disenfranchisement until people start getting arrested.

      He moved it inside city hall where it can’t be accessed 24/7. He is interfering with voting.

      I feel like the Feds are afraid of the optics of arresting politicians these days.

    30. truePHYSX on

      Okay, it’s supposed to be bolted down TODAY. I need a follow up article.

    31. SouthHovercraft4150 on

      Election integrity should be front and centre and any act that erodes confidence in it should have a big spotlight to ensure faith in elections are restored. Throw the book at’m.

    32. Sugartits66 on

      This is a prime example of a guy who has never been punched in the mouth. Smarmy douchebag.

    33. PurpleCitron8 on

      More election interference from Republican officials. That party should be outlawed.

    34. TheFaultinOurStars93 on

      All I gotta say is if your goal is to try to make it harder for people to vote, that tells me all I need to know about you.
