ELECTION UPDATE

The Wisconsin Supreme Court has ruled absentee ballot drop boxes are illegal in Wisconsin.

The Supreme Court also ruled that voters must personally deliver absentee ballots that are dropped off at the clerk's office.

It is illegal for someone else, like a spouse or roommate, to return a voter's completed absentee ballot to the clerk's office. The voter must carry out that task personally.

• Mail it back
• Drop it off at the town clerk’s office during open hours or by appointment
