The Wisconsin Supreme Court on Friday tossed out an election lawsuit brought by a conservative businessman in an effort to halt the use of absentee ballot boxes in future elections.
The 4-3 decision is another decided by conservative Justice Brian Hagedornâs swing vote. Hagedorn joined liberal justices in declining to hear the lawsuit filed in March against the Wisconsin Elections Commission, Madison, Milwaukee and others by Jere Fabick, a prominent Republican donor and president of Fabick Cat, the Caterpillar equipment and engine dealer.
Justices in the majority relied upon procedural reasons not to hear the case over concerns from a minority of conservative justices that the stateâs highest court is avoiding taking on important cases.
