The Public Interest Legal Foundation (PILF) filed a complaint on Monday against the Green Bay city clerk to the Wisconsin Elections Commission for not following state law to verify same-day voter registrations. Same-day voter registration, which is when people can register to vote and cast a ballot at the same time, is a practice that both PILF and the Honest Elections Project warn may let illegal votes be counted before a voter’s registration can be verified. 

PILF reported the Green Bay city clerk to the Wisconsin Elections Commission for failing to follow state law on same-day voter registration, an election practice that election integrity advocates warn can allow illegal votes to be counted. 

PILF President J. Christian Adams said on the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show on Wednesday that “the problem with same-day registration of course is you don't know, in fact, if they're eligible to vote. Well, that's what Wisconsin law does, is they require a verification mailing, and if the mailing bounces, the DA is supposed to investigate and possibly prosecute.” 

Adams added that across Wisconsin, “they're not following the law. And that Green Bay's clerk is not doing what the statute says she's supposed to do. So the Public Interest Legal Foundation is representing Wisconsin citizens to try to get this fix and get her to follow the law that's meant to make our elections more secure.” :snip:

MAY let illegal votes be counted? MAY?
