they cannot legally destroy ballots or other election materials if there are open records requests filed for them. Requests have been filed in all 72 states -- not just by WI Wave but by others who filed them before the July 5th-- the 30th day after the election, and the 1st day they could have destroyed them legally, if ORRs HADN't been put in
