@BernieSanders says his campaign won’t do any traditional GOTV tomorrow for the Wisconsin election. “Let's be clear: holding this election amid the coronavirus outbreak is dangerous, disregards the guidance of public health experts, and may very well prove deadly.”

1. I thought the election was postponed till June?

2. Nope. It's on - per USSC.

Stupid and evil republicans

4. This is all about a state Supreme Court seat. Repubs want low turnout.

5. Same old song and dance, repubs ALWAYS NEED low turnout.

If everyone votes they lose, if only 'certain' people vote they win.

6. Highly principled Democratic congressman John Lewis completely disagrees.

NYT: “I know what it is to campaign hard and to work hard,” Mr. Lewis said, acknowledging that he faced some “problems now, but they will not be with me forever.” “And I will be out there working and campaigning for Joe Biden as president of the United States of America.” ...

“If we fail to vote, we don’t count,” he said. But he also expressed concern about voting against the backdrop of a pandemic, in a nation that has struggled with voter suppression, saying that he worried about whether the country would have a “free” election.

“I just hope that, in spite of whatever is going on now, that people will not be afraid to come out and vote. We have to vote.”

Yes. We do.

7. Seems to me it would make sense to assist people to vote given the election is going forward.

Perhaps providing gloves and masks and a safe ride to the polling stations for those who want to participate.
