Wisconsin Supreme Court says Republicans can continue to fight extended absentee voting
MADISON - A divided Wisconsin Supreme Court told federal judges Tuesday that Republican lawmakers have the power to pursue an appeal as they try to prevent an expanded absentee voting counting period.
The 4-3 ruling is a victory for Republicans, but they still face obstacles as they try to undo a court order that would allow the counting of absentee ballots that arrive after Election Day if they are postmarked by then.
The decision sends the case back to the U.S. 7th Circuit Court of Appeals in Chicago, which must decide whether the lawmakers can continue the appeal and, if so, whether to throw out the absentee balloting extension.
