NEW from me: 2.5 hour waits. Poll workers in hazmats. A mother who left the polling station worried it wasn& #39;t safe. Scenes on the ground from the questionably safe Wisconsin election, and a defiant Milwaukee that feels it& #39;s being silenced https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/07/us/politics/wisconsin-democratic-voters.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/0...

A house near one polling site DJ& #39;d a playlist of soul music. David Bowen, a state rep who had coronavirus, is picking up absentee from sickly residents.

It is not as bad throughout rest of state. Rural and suburb communities are reporting 30ish minute wait times, and more options for drive thru balloting. National focus was on Sanders/Biden, but the item du jour in state is the Supreme Court seat https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/07/us/politics/wisconsin-democratic-voters.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/0...

one lady went thru the whole line and voted with a cardboard sign that read "THIS IS RIDICULOUS" https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/07/us/politics/wisconsin-democratic-voters.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/0...
