It will be interesting to see the democratic voter turnout after the republicans won a SCOTUS victory to suppress democratic votes.
Republicans care far more about power than democracy, which we know because of their continued voter suppression efforts and the voter fraud they committed in the 2018 elections.

Welcome to democracy as defined by the Republican Party...
We can't win fairly, so we'll subvert your right to vote to stay in power...

Republicans have allowed the election to proceed despite having only 5 polling places in a city of 600,000. I don't know how they can look themselves in the mirror. Today's Republican leaders are truly evil, evil people.

This is America.
And of course,
At a White House briefing on Tuesday, President Trump said the Wisconsin Supreme Court had made the right decision to allow the state's primary election to go ahead.
"Mail-in voting is horrible," he said. "It's corrupt."
*When a reporter asked the president how he reconciled that view with his own request last month for an absentee ballot to vote by post in Florida's Republican primary, he replied:* "Because I'm allowed to."
