In a shocking turn of events, the Milwaukee City Election Commission announced a special registration drive for unregistered voters in the city. The move comes as the commission scrambles to address concerns over voter disenfranchisement ahead of the April 5 election. On Monday and Tuesday, polling stations will be open from 4 to 9 pm for the sole purpose of registering eligible voters who may have been previously overlooked. The commission’s decision has raised eyebrows, with some accusing officials of attempting to manipulate the electoral process.
