31. WEC commissioners and Administrator Wolfe created a signal Internet location for
all Wisconsin electors to request absentee ballots without the statutory authority to do so. In an
April 7, 2020 Absentee Voting Report, WEC commissioners and Administrator Wolfe wrote,
“MyVote is a public-facing website that provides a central location for voters to submit an
absentee ballot request regardless of where they reside in the state (April 7, 2020 Absentee
Voting Report, p. 9). Because no such statute exists, WEC cannot cite a Wisconsin statute that
