Ballot Error in Wisconsin Town Disenfranchises GOP Primary Voters
New legislative maps led to incorrect ballots, affecting nearly 700 voters in the town of Summit.
- Summit voters received ballots for the 73rd District instead of the 74th District due to an administrative oversight.
- The error prevented Summit residents from voting in the correct GOP primary race.
- Douglas County Clerk Kaci Jo Lundgren acknowledged the mistake and is preparing for potential legal challenges.
- Votes for other statewide races and ballot questions cast by Summit residents are still valid.
- This incident marks the first election with Wisconsin's new legislative boundaries in effect.
