This pertains only to Wisconsin, not my home state. Can ballots be mailed there? Can they be delivered to a drive-by window at the clerk’s office or have a person authorized to accept ballots at the door? I admit that even I, a liberal voter, am uncomfortable a little with unsupervised ballot drop boxes in various places around town, if that is how it is done. We have six or eight polling places staffed with poll workers and judges. Drop boxes can be located there and available during voting hours. I live in a Republican town in a blue state and Republicans are notorious for voter fraud and suppression and would not be above tampering with votes or stuffing a drop box.

My concern is whether the postal service is competent and timely enough to do mail-in ballots, both to and from the voter. By my experience, they are not. I requested a Democrat primary ballot to be mailed and it was returned as undeliverable. They sent it again but it never arrived.

You do understand Republican heavy areas in Wisconsin are decreasing in population. The fastest growing area in the state is Dane County (Madison area). Milwaukee city normally has low turnout. Waukesha and Ozaukee counties are trending blue. Republicans cannot afford to lose anymore of that vote. The key to winning is the Brown county/Fox Valley areas.

LOL@waukesha and ozaukee “trending blue”.

Do you mean the GOP is getting 70% of the vote instead of 75%? I appreciate you didn’t throw Washington County in with that garbage observation. My home town of West Bend is NOT “trending blue”.

Read. Reading is good.

And try not to become completely hysterical (as you did here) before at least TRYING to read the decision. Or get someone to read it to you.
The problem comes because the post office can no longer be trusted to deliver on time. That is why drop boxes became necessary to begin with.

Too bad Wisconsin is making it harder for disabled and seniors to vote. Can't even have a relative deliver the ballot to town hall. How stupid.

The ruling was more for legislative accuracy than voter integrity.
This ruling confirms that hundreds of thousands of ballots were illegally harvested in 2020 in Wisconsin. If you do not see ballot collection against the law as an voting integrity matter, I don't know what to say to you.

The way it was always done until 2020. Deal with it. Everyone knows the democrats used harvesting to steal the election in 2020, at least people with a functioning brain with an IQ over 100. The difference is democrats call it "voter suppression" to not harvest, thinking going door to door with ballots getting people to fill them out who would have otherwise not voted is perfectly valid in their minds.
