Wisconsin Elections Commission Member Questions Voting Report

A survey indicating the state’s voter I-D law kept 17-thousand people from voting is being questioned by a member of the Wisconsin Elections Commission.  Dean Knudson is a Republican commissioner and a former state lawmaker.  He wants to see all the data which went into a report presented to the commission Tuesday by U-W-Madison political science professor Ken Mayer.  Knudson says he thinks the survey was flawed.  Mayer says he’s willing to show the results which were collected, but he can’t release anything which identifies those who took part.  His work only examined how the law affected voting in heavily-Democratic Dane and Milwaukee counties.
