October 20, 2016 | By Hawks Quindel, S.C.

HQ Attorneys Richard Saks, Michele Sumara, and Barbara Quindel advised and represented the League of Women Voters of Wisconsin in successfully pressuring the Wisconsin Elections Commission to reverse course on a needlessly strict policy that would have disenfranchised thousands of absentee ballots due to a technicality for the upcoming November 8 election. HQ Attorneys worked closely with the Fair Elections Legal Network in advising the League and preparing for federal litigation alleging Constitutional voting rights violations on the matter, prompting the Commission to revise its policy and enable municipal clerks to count the ballots.
