Wisconsin election law violations, Racine County sheriff alleges

Racine County Sheriff Christopher Schmaling unveiled on Thursday, Oct. 28 the results of an investigation into possible election law violations throughout Racine County and Wisconsin. While the sheriff alleges the law has been broken, he is not yet recommending charges.

“Election statute was in fact not just broken, but shattered by members of the Wisconsin Elections Commission,” Schmaling said. 

The case started with Shirley, a resident of the Ridgewood Care Facility in Mount Pleasant, who died in October 2020 and voted in the presidential election. Her daughter, Judy Westphal-Mitchell, filed a complaint alleging her mother with “diminished mental capacity” was taken advantage of.

Racine County Sgt. Michael Luell investigated the issue”Judy was obviously concerned and asked, you know, ‘How can you actually do this?’ And she was informed that the employees would inquire as to how the resident had voted in the past and they would basically follow those guidelines and vote accordingly,” Luell said. “Judy, quite astutely asked, ‘Are you telling me that if my mother can only recall JFK, that the staff would have voted Democrat for her?’ And the answer is yes.”

“How could my mother know that her vote was recorded accurately, she couldn’t see. Judy was informed by the staff that the staff hoped that the other employees would be honest.”
