David Canon, a professor of political science at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, said he believes a two-day head start in pre-processing absentee ballots is reasonable. Such a measure would have allowed Wisconsin to finish counting absentee ballots almost simultaneously with in-person votes, staving off now-rampant claims of voter fraud occurring in the middle of the night. “You would have been done by 8 p.m.,” Canon said. “For sure it would have taken care of the problem.”
