A Racine County jury convicts Harry Wait for requesting ballots without consent
A Racine County jury convicted Harry Wait of election fraud and identity theft for requesting absentee ballots without the voters' consent. Wait requested ballots for Republican Assembly Speaker Robin Vos and Democratic Racine Mayor Cory Mason, saying he wanted to expose a weakness in Wisconsin's system. The verdict turned a self-styled election-integrity test into a criminal fraud case.
