The Wisconsin Supreme Court has refused to ban absentee ballot drop boxes.
By a four-to-three margin, the justices declined to take the case brought forward by Wisconsin businessman Jere Fabick last March.
The court says Fabick’s lawsuit asked important questions.
He wanted to limit who can return the ballots to local clerks and prohibit election officials from filling in missing addresses of witnesses on absentee ballot envelopes when they are submitted.
