Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers asked a federal judge Wednesday to direct the state to hold its primary through mail-in voting, but did not ask for the April 7 vote to be postponed, as many states have done.
On Monday, the state’s Republican-controlled legislature rejected a proposal from Evers, a Democrat, to ensure that Wisconsin’s 3.3 million registered voters receive absentee ballots and to delay the absentee ballot deadline, which is currently April 2.
