UPDATE: GAB refuses to allow election observers to use cameras

MADISON (WKOW) -- You will not have your picture taken by an election observer when you vote next month. The Wisconsin Government Accountability Board (GAB) made that decision Monday afternoon.

The GAB adopted several rule changes governing election observers that were suggested by Republicans leaders on the Assembly and Senate election committees, but not the one that would allow those observers to use cameras at the polls.

The judges rejected that provision on a 4-2 vote.
