-- A split U.S. Supreme Court ruled this evening that absentee ballots must be postmarked by tomorrow, April 7th, 2020, in order to be counted in Wisconsin’s spring election, adding yet another legal twist as voters decide the presidential primary, a Supreme Court race and hundreds of local offices.
Under the court’s order, absentee ballots must be postmarked by election day and received by 4 p.m. April 13 or hand-delivered to local clerks by 8 p.m. tomorrow.
The ruling comes after the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals had upheld a lower court ruling that the crush of absentee ballots requested for the spring election would count so long as they were received by 4 p.m. April 13, regardless of the postmark.
Typically, absentee ballots must be received by 8 p.m. on Election Day to count.
The 5-4 majority ruled extending the date ballots may be cast an additional six days "after the scheduled election day fundamentally alters the nature of the election."
