Diving into democracy, Maggie explores the controversial decision by a Waukesha County judge requiring the Wisconsin Elections Commission to verify voter citizenship, sparking debate on election security and logistics. Joined by Mike Tate and Scott Klug of the Democracy Defense Project, discussions highlight bipartisan efforts to improve voter confidence through early ballot processing and standardized dropboxes. Amidst the political discourse, Maggie offers a spirited play-by-play of the Brewers-Cubs game, scrutinizing the impact of umpiring errors on game outcomes.
