Election Commission Report:  Record Absentee Ballots, But Minimal Problems

The Wisconsin Election Commission reports the April 7^th presidential primary set records for absentee and mail-in voting, but there were only minimal problems.  The commission released its report Monday.  It shows that voters cast the most absentee ballots ever in a spring election in the state, but the percentage of rejected ballots was still below two percent.  That’s consistent with past elections.  Some voters complained that their mail-in ballots never arrived and others feared they would be rejected for being too late.
