Just before election results are due out of Wisconsin, ambiguity from a U.S. Supreme Court decision and an unprecedented number of absentee ballots permeate the end of what has become the standard-bearer for chaotic elections in the time of coronavirus.
As of Monday morning, there was still no centralized guidance from the ideologically-deadlocked Wisconsin Elections Commission on whether ballots with a missing or date-less postmark will be counted.
Each municipality must determine whether the ballot was postmarked timely, read WEC guidance released over the weekend.
The commission held an emergency meeting Friday to clear up the questions raised after the Supreme Court decided on the eve of election day that absentee ballots must be postmarked by April 7 to count.
