The rules for poll watchers in Wisconsin are not changing.
The state’s Elections Commission was deadlocked yesterday on a plan to clarify the rules for where election observers can stand on Election Day. Republican Commission chairman Don Millis said he wanted to give some guidance to local election clerks who may be nervous about next month’s elections. The Democrats on the Commission blocked his ideas. That means local election managers across the state could interpret the state’s laws differently when voters head to the polls in less than a month.
