Several Counties in Wisconsin Run Out of Ballots During Hotly Contested Supreme Court Race

Update: Democrat Susan Crawford is the projected winner.

Several counties in Wisconsin ran out of ballots during a highly contested state Supreme Court race.

SEVEN voting sites had ZERO ballots due to “unprecedented turnout.”

The GOP encouraged voters in Wisconsin to stay in line.

Wisconsin, if you’re still in line STAY IN LINE!

You have the right to cast your ballot!

Polls already closed in Wisconsin in the state Supreme Court race that pits Republican Brad Schimel against far left Democrat Susan Crawford.

The race will decide the future of Wisconsin including election laws, voter ID laws, ballot drop boxes and the redistricting of the state’s eight US House seats.

Currently, Republicans in Wisconsin hold a 6-2 majority in US House seats and yet surprisingly, Democrats are able to win state-wide races.

“Some locations are experiencing ballot shortages due to the higher voter turnout,” ABC 12 reported.
