Wisconsin judge rules that GOP-controlled Senate’s vote to fire top elections official had no effect

A Wisconsin judge says the state Senate’s vote to fire a top elections official last month had no effect.

And the leader of the Republican Senate agreed!

When told the Senate had no legal authority to oust the Election head, the Republican speaker said that he knew that, that the vote was simply "symbolic" to show Senate lack of confidence in the election head.

Right?
Right!
No harm, no foul, Republicans will just have to find another way to keep #ThosePeople from voting.

Decision rendered by newly formulated Wisconsin Supreme Court today.

Republican attempts to minimize non-white districts declared unconstitutional.

Complete rout of Wisconsin race-mongering partisans.

Republicans surrender, recognizing the writing on the wall.
Bipartisan bill to minimize gerrymandering in Wisconsin signed into law.

Wisconsin had been a "purple" state since 2010, but partisan Republican gerrymandering had made the state the worst gerrymandered state in the country, where a 51-49 slim Republican majority translate to a 70-30 red congressional delegation.

Then the governor's seat was flipped to Democratic
More importantly, the ultra-partisan Wisconsin Supreme court changed from 6-3 Republican to 5-4 Democrat and all of a sudden a lot of super-sketchy rush-passed Republican laws were immediately declared unconstitutional.

Recognizing the very real possibility that Democrats could "do unto them what they'd be doing to Dems" over the past 14 years and create a 70-30 Democratic advantage in Congress, Republicans "graciously" conceded a return to historical norms, 50-50 split....likely to soon (within 4 years) become 60-40 Dem due to changing population demographics.

All voting barriers to non-white folks (primarily in Milwaukee) removed.
The ability of college students to vote on-campus in elections (instead of skipping school to return to their hometowns to vote) remains up in the air.

The evil Republican/Russian asset Ron Johnson still resides in the US Senate so there is still work to be done.
