威斯康星州一名市长在2024年9月从市政厅移除了选票箱, 不会面临刑事指控. A Wisconsin mayor who removed a ballot drop box from City Hall in September 2024 will not face criminal charges. 两党审查由福德杜拉克县地区检察官埃里克·托尼 (Eric Toney) 认为没有足够的证据支持起诉. A bipartisan review by Fond du Lac County District Attorney Eric Toney concluded there was insufficient evidence to support prosecution. 检察官认为该装置不符合投票箱的法律定义, 因为它包含混合材料并且不是专门用于选票. While the city’s ethics board found a violation, prosecutors determined the device did not meet the legal definition of a ballot box because it contained mixed materials and was not exclusively for ballots.
