Question: When is a Wisconsin Republican in favor of leaving no stone unturned in pursuit of electoral fraud?
Answer: When such fraud is the stuff of fiction. In the much ballyhooed 2004 Milwaukee fraud fable, a total of 18 improper votes were found out of over 277,000 cast in Milwaukee. (See pp31-32 for summary) The Wisconsin GOP is using fables such as these to justify the nation's most onerous voter ID law. (It has not yet come up for a vote but it is on the horizon.)
Question: When is a Wisconsin Republican against turning a single stone in pursuit of electoral fraud?
