A group of Wisconsin voters filed a complaint with the Wisconsin Election Commission against an activist group funded by Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg, claiming that election-assistance grants it gave to Democrat-dominated cities violate state law and attempt to unfairly influence the outcome of the November election.
Wisconsin is an important 2020 battleground state that President Donald Trump, a Republican, narrowly won in 2016. In that election, Trump won 47.2 percent of the popular vote in the state, beating Democrat Hillary Clinton who won 46.5 percent. Wisconsin has 10 of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency.
