Wisconsin Republicans Show It’s Politics, Not Public Safety, They Care About In Refusing To Consider Election Delay

From the article:

Requests for the means to save citizens’ lives doesn’t seem political, in my view. Indeed, in my home state of Wisconsin, it’s Republicans who appear to care more about politics, refusing to work with the state’s governor, Tony Evers, a Democrat, in order to find a solution for this week’s spring elections in the wake of a crisis.

The elections feature two statewide races — the presidential primary race between Joe Biden and Bernie Sanders, and a state Supreme Court election. Beyond that, however, there are more than 6,000 down-ballot races for positions like mayor, school board, city council, and more, across the entire Badger State.

2. If they were truly concerned, voting by mail is the safe answer.

3. I'm a WI pollworker and hate the Republican legislators

Yes, I could not show up, but our town clerk is my friend and I will not let her down
Only motto for our state from now on: I will never vote Republican again as long as I live. (not for me, I'd never vote Republican)

4. Understood.

We voted on March 17th in Illinois. Many polling places lacked personnel, and the turnout was low. With luck, (and I say luck because Trump has no idea what to do), by November the threat could be more controllable.
