By Republican Party of Wisconsin - Nov 3rd, 2022 12:31 pm

[Appleton, WI] – In response to the firing of the deputy director of the City of Milwaukee Election Commission, and revelations about fraudulent military absentee ballots, the Republican Party of Wisconsin issued the following statement.

“Election officials need to follow the law. However, the vulnerabilities that continue to be exposed in the MyVote system for requesting absentee ballots should be shocking to everyone. We remain very concerned that these vulnerabilities exist and that the Elections Commission is not taking the proper steps to mitigate the risks of potential fraud those vulnerabilities in the system create,” said RPW Communications Director Chad Doran.
