unless 300,000 Wisconsin voters actually showed up at the polls and were refused a ballot or forced to vote a provisional ballot.

Which of course, couldn't possibly have been known within 24 hours of the election being over.

Being removed from the voter rolls is meaningless unless the voter actually attempts to vote.

in addition, the 2013 Supreme Court decision to roll back a key provision of the voters rights act, embolden more states to add these restrictive voting laws
