Wisconsin judge says voters who have returned absentee ballot for state primary cannot get a new one

The ruling leaves returned absentee ballots in place as early voting continues and Democrats pursue a lawsuit over ballot revotes.

  • A Wisconsin judge ruled that voters who have returned absentee ballots for the state's primary cannot cancel or void them to request new ones, upholding state law that disallows ballot spoiling after submission.
  • The ruling rejected a lawsuit filed by Democrats concerned about absentee votes cast for candidates who later withdrew, such as Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez.
  • The bipartisan Wisconsin Elections Commission's guidance that absentee voters cannot change ballots once mailed was found legal and consistent with state law.
  • Polling shows State Rep. Francesca Hong leading the Democratic primary, which will likely face Republican Tom Tiffany in the November contest.
