The Wisconsin Legislative Audit Bureau released its report on the 2020 election Friday, after receiving limited cooperation from officials.
- Auditors were able to interview 2 of 6 Wisconsin Election Commissioners. An additional commissioner provided written testimony, but the other two declined.
- Also, Auditors were not allowed to physically handle election-related materials from the City of Madison.
- Auditors tried to survey every municipal clerk in the state, but only 48% responded. Out of the 72 County clerks, 82% responded.
Despite these barriers, the Auditors made several explosive discoveries.
