The Tyrannical WI 2020 Election Drop Boxes-Banned!

The shocking but laughably illegitimate Wisconsin Supreme Court couldn't look more radical when it decided against ballot drop boxes. 

Absentee ballot drop boxes have been used in the state for years, but came into prominence during the 2020 election season

Three half-crazed Justices ignored the 3 states that already use drop boxes exclusively for voting, and instead used the nonlegal right-wing memes claiming tyranny and the kind of corrupt employed by Saddam Husien in Iraq, Syria and other despotic countries.  

The majority opinion of the 114-page ruling quotes William Shakespeare and hip-hop artist Kanye West to make the case that the state elections commission overstepped its bounds. "No one man should have all that power," Bradley wrote, quoting West's lead single for his 2010 album "My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy." Bradley also suggests the ruling will prevent Wisconsin elections from becoming the rigged contests found in totalitarian regimes like Iraq, Cuba, Syria and North Korea.

"Throughout history, tyrants have claimed electoral victory via elections conducted in violation of governing law. For example, Saddam Hussein was reportedly elected in 2002 by a unanimous vote of all eligible voters in Iraq (11,445,638 people). Examples of such corruption are replete in history. In the 21st century, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un was elected in 2014 with 100% of the vote while his father, Kim Jong-il, previously won 99.9% of the vote. Former President of Cuba, Raul Castro, won 99.4% of the vote in 2008 while Syrian President Bashar al-Assad was elected with 97.6% of the vote in 2007.” - Justice Rebecca Bradley

If we're just using the political mess offered up by Trump and lapdog Vos, and not the actual language of the law (something the 3 wacky Justices used to make their case), they missed a few revealing Republican actions: 

In September 2020, while the city of Madison was preparing to host a series of “Democracy in the Park” events, a lawyer writing on behalf of the Legislature’s Republican leaders — who were questioning the legality of the events — pointed to drop boxes as an alternative way to collect votes.

“Wisconsin law already provides numerous, readily available methods” ... citing returning ballots by mail or at secure absentee ballot drop boxes as appropriate alternatives for returning a completed ballot, wrote the lawyer, Misha Tseytlin, on behalf of Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and then-Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald. “We wholeheartedly support voters’ use of any of these convenient, secure and expressly authorized absentee-ballot-return methods,” he wrote on behalf of the GOP leaders.

But Vos folded under pressure from right-wing primary candidates and Trump's big lie.

Vos faced blowback at the Capitol for his perceived support of absentee ballot drop boxes. Rep. Timothy Ramthun, a conspiracy theorist and GOP candidate for governor, falsely accused the Republican leader of coordinating with Hillary Clinton’s lawyers to authorize the use of absentee ballot drop boxes in 2020 ... a handful of states that vote completely by mail, returning a ballot via a locked drop box is among the only ways to cast a vote. Those states include Washington, Utah and Colorado.

The ridiculously activist Supreme Court also, unashamedly, did the following:

In November, the court created a “least changes” standard for legislative redistricting that would apply to the gerrymandered 2011 map drawn by Republicans. The move locked in another decade of near supermajorities for Republicans in the State Legislature, even though the state is among the most closely divided in the country.

The court’s conservative majority also ruled last month that Walker appointees could stay in their posts after their terms expired, until the Republican-controlled State Senate confirmed replacements selected by Mr. Evers — which G.O.P. senators have often declined to do.
