GOP Claims Ballots in Wisconsin Bypassed ID Check

|Updated:

In Wisconsin, Republicans are alleging that thousands of ballots in the state bypassed the requirement for voter identification checks.

That’s because Wisconsin law allows people voting by mail to self-certify if they are “indefinitely confined” to their home. In that case, they wouldn’t need to show any form of photo ID. The number of people “indefinitely confined” jumped over three-fold in the 2020 election, thanks to the new rules during the pandemic.
