[Madison, WI] – In response to several reports of municipal clerks in Madison and Milwaukee willfully ignoring and breaking state election law concerning voter ID requirements, the Republican Party of Wisconsin issued the following statement from Chairman Andrew Hitt:
“Reports of clerks willfully ignoring state statutes is an outrageous assault on our democratic process and Wisconsin’s election laws. It represents a blatant disregard of the rule of law by those elected to protect and apply them. The Republican Party of Wisconsin will aggressively pursue any legal remedy available to put a stop to clerks unilaterally and illegally rigging an election in their favor.”
