Wisconsin Supreme Court Won’t Hear President Trump’s Election Law Case

On December 3, the Wisconsin Supreme Court declined to hear Trump v Evers, 2020AP-1971, at this time. The case challenges acceptance of several hundred thousand votes cast last month. The plaintiffs argue that certain absentee votes should not have been counted. The vote was 4-3. Even one of the dissents says that if the Court had taken the case now, it doesn’t follow that any votes would have been invalidated. The majority depended on the fact that the law says a case of this type should have been filed in a trial court. The dissent acknowledges that, but says that the law violates the State Constitution. Of course the dissent also stresses the time urgency of the case. Here is the decision.
