With a pandemic sweeping the country, the Supreme Court of Wisconsin, backed by SCOTUS, just ruled that changing the date for when absentee ballots can be received is okey-dokey.

Anyone else heard or experienced this?

I know that the majority of us here are pretty civic minded and understand the importance of completing the census. I personally completed my household’s the day after I received my code in the mail. Went straight to the site, entered my assigned code, filled out the form and received email verification that my form was submitted properly.

This is the second time in as many days that a REPUBLICAN has said that vote-by-mail would be “devastating” to GOP candidates. Trump said the other day there would never be another Republican president if we went that route.

It appears as if all of the reports saying the GOP is trying to suppress voting are not only true, but is the plan all along.
