MADISON, WI (AP)— The Republican-backed candidate in Wisconsin’s closely watched state Supreme Court race has resurfaced long debunked concerns about voting fraud because of the late reporting of ballots in Milwaukee.
Brad Schimel made the comments Tuesday, just two weeks before the April 1st election.
Schimel spoke of the possibility of “bags of ballots” and fraud in Milwaukee. Absentee ballots in Milwaukee are typically reported late because of the sheer number of ballots and because state law doesn't allow them to be processed until after polls open on election day.
Schimel faces Democratic-backed Susan Crawford in the election.
