WI Absentee Ballot Requests Mishandled

According to this report, some absentee ballot applications solicited by non-party groups for the recall elections have been sent to the wrong clerk’s office.  Wisconsin has some 1850 separate electoral jurisdictions, because elections are administered at the municipal rather than the county level — and it turns out there are multiple muncipalities with names like “Franklin” and “Washington.”  What a mess!
