A federal judge has ruled Wisconsin’s absentee ballots can be counted up to six days after the November 3rd presidential election.
U-S District Judge William Conley’s ruling issued Monday included a preliminary injunction that could be appealed all the way to the U-S Supreme Court.
Under current state law, the deadline for returning your absentee ballot and having it counted is 8:00 p-m on Election Day.
Democrats had sued, asking the deadline to be extended.
Conley’s ruling is on hold for seven days, giving opponents a chance to pursue an emergency appeal.
