Wisconsin Supreme Court Dismisses GOP Lawsuit on Mobile Voting Van

The court's 4-3 ruling determined that the Republican plaintiff lacked legal standing, leaving the legality of mobile voting vans unresolved.

The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled 4-3 that Ken Brown, a Republican official, lacked standing to sue over Racine's use of a mobile voting van during the 2022 primary election.
The court did not address whether the use of mobile voting vans violates state election laws, leaving their future legality open to interpretation.
Racine's mobile voting van, funded by a Zuckerberg-backed grant, traveled to 21 locations in 2022 to facilitate early in-person absentee voting.
Critics argue the ruling could limit voters' ability to challenge election law violations, while supporters say it ensures broader access to voting.
The decision comes ahead of an April 1 state Supreme Court election that could shift the court's ideological balance in the key battleground state.
