On the evening of April 6, the U.S. Supreme Court voted 5-4 to overturn the Seventh Circuit decision that let Wisconsin absentee ballots arrive as late as April 13, for the April 7 election. See the order here.

At approximately 5 p.m. Wisconsin time, the Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled 4-2 that the April 7 election for judicial offices should proceed. The State Supreme Court Justice who is running for re-election recused himself. See this story. Many polling places have no officials to open the voting site.
Here is the order, which does not explain the rationale.
Soon after Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers postponed the April 7 judicial election, the Republican Party asked the State Supreme Court to rule that the election should go ahead on April 7. See this story.
On April 4, the Unity Party held an online convention using Webex, and nominated Bill Hammons for president, and Eric Bodenstab for vice-president. The party is ballot-qualified in Colorado, and has never before had a presidential nominee.
On April 6, Monday, Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers delayed the April 7 election until June 9. The proclamation says the June 9 would be changed to another date if the legislature passes a bill setting a different date.
The most important part of the April 7 are non-partisan judicial races, including a State Supreme Court race. The April 7 date is also for the state’s presidential primaries for the Democratic and Republican Parties. Here is the proclamation. Thanks to Rick Hasen for the link.
