Frederica Freyberg:

Soon after the polls closed in the spring primary election, the Wisconsin Elections Commission met to rescind its directive on absentee ballot drop boxes in concurrence with a recent state Supreme Court order.

Robert Spindell:

We’re not issuing any additional guidance because, you know, maybe the guidance shouldn’t have been issued in the first place. So I don’t think we’re in the position now to start issuing additional guidance regarding drop boxes or who cannot bring in the ballot to the clerk.

Frederica Freyberg:

The guidance was written in 2020, a year when more than 2 million absentee ballots were requested by voters statewide.

Also this week, the Republican-led election investigation directed by former Supreme Court justice Michael Gableman has withdrawn all subpoenas issued to immigrant advocacy group Voces de La Frontera Action.
