On Oct. 31, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel ran State’s high court won’t rule on disputed Green funds before election, which begins: ” A divided state Supreme Court refused late Tuesday to give a pre-election decision to Republican gubernatorial candidate Mark Green on an Elections Board order that his campaign give up $467,844 in out-of-state political action committee donations. After days of closed-door sessions, a four-justice majority gave parties in the case 20 days to file more legal arguments. A reserve judge will sort through them and report back to the court by Nov. 30 – 23 days after Tuesday’s election.” The Wall Street Journal editorialized against what it saw as a politicization of the decision of the Wisconsin Elections Board.
Now, after the election, which Green lost, he still plans to fight for the right to the money.
I don’t know anything about the race to know whether this affected the outcome, but the allegations, if true, are troubling.
