MADISON, Wis–The Wisconsin Elections Commissions orders an investigation into the mailing of duplicate absentee ballots to voter in Green Bay in two successive elections. Some voters in both the April general election and next month’s primary election were sent two ballots by the City Clerk’s office.
Elections Commission Member Ann Jacobs says that should not happen………..
Jacobs adds that if the city of Green Bay used the WisVote system to print the mailing labels for absentee ballots, instead of a third-party vendor, there are safeguards in place to prevent double printing. City Clerk Celestine Jeffreys has said the April mistake was due to a mailing issue, while this month’s snafu was a printing error.
