MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul is pushing back against a request to let disabled people cast absentee ballots electronically from home in this November’s presidential election. Disability Rights Wisconsin, the League of Women Voters and four disabled people filed a lawsuit in April demanding disabled people be allowed to cast absentee ballots electronically from home. They asked Dane County Circuit Judge Everett Mitchell to issue a temporary injunction before the lawsuit is resolved granting the accommodation in the November presidential election. Kaul’s attorneys argued during a hearing Monday that state election officials don’t have time before the election to train local clerks on such a change. They also argued the move also would create security risks.
