  • In direct response to election changes related to the COVID-19 pandemic and 2020 United States presidential election in Wisconsin; the Donald Trump 2020 presidential campaign launched numerous lawsuits contesting the election processes of Wisconsin. All of these have either been dismissed or dropped. The sole case ruled in favour of Trump and the Rebulican party was Mark Jefferson v. Dane County, Wisconsin on December 14, 2020. On December 14, 2020, a petition was filed in the Wisconsin Supreme Court by Mark Jefferson and the Republican Party of Wisconsin seeking a declaration that (1) Dane County lacks the authority to issue an interpretation of Wisconsin's election law allowing all electors in Dane County to obtain an absentee ballot without a photo identification and (2) Governor Tony Evers' Emergency Order #12 did not authorize all Wisconsin voters to obtain an absentee ballot without a photo identification. The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled in favor of Mark Jefferson and the Republican Party of Wisconsin, stating that the Dane County government's interpretation of Wisconsin election laws was erroneous. "A county clerk may not 'declare' that any elector is indefinitely confined due to a pandemic," the court said. The court further stated that "...the presence of a communicable disease such as COVID-19, in and of itself, does not entitle all electors in Wisconsin to obtain an absentee ballot..." This ruling had no effect on either the results of Dane County or Wisconsin. (en)
