Rants By Scot - Rant #3 - Wisconsin Primary

4 years ago
17

On Tuesday, April 7, 2020, Wisconsin held their state primary, despite the entire country under lockdown due to the coronavirus crisis. 16 other states had rescheduled their primaries to later in the summer, and both political parties have extended the deadlines to hold such primaries.

In this video, I talk about the primary being held under so much less than ideal conditions, citing articles from CNN.com and the Washington Post. I think it was highly unwise to risk the health and welfare of the voting public in Wisconsin by holding this primary at this time when it could have been handled differently.

To review the CNN.com article, "This is ridiculous: Wisconsin Holds Its Primary In The Middle Of A Pandemic", follow this link: https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/07/politics/wisconsin-primary-coronavirus/index.html

And to see the Washington Post article "Why Voting By Mail Will Be So Hard For States To Set Up On The Fly", take this link: https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/04/03/vote-by-mail-difficulties/

As always, I welcome your comments and opinions in the comments section. Let's have a discussion; I'm interested in your thoughts on this matter.
