Justices in control of the Wisconsin Supreme Court, leaning liberal, have given indications that they may reverse a previous ruling that banned the use of absentee ballot drop boxes, potentially allowing these boxes to be utilized in the upcoming 2024 election. This move appears to be part of a larger trend where the court's liberal majority is taking decisive action to overturn decisions made during the conservatives' 15-year tenure of the court, especially in a state that holds significance as a crucial swing state in national elections.

During oral arguments, the justices showcased a clear willingness to make significant changes to existing policies, including overturning the ban on absentee ballot drop boxes and other decisions made by the previous conservative-leaning court. This proactive stance taken by the liberal justices signals a departure from the previous status quo and underscores a shift towards more progressive and inclusive voting practices in Wisconsin. Additionally, the court's recent striking down of a redistricting plan that favored Republicans highlights a pattern of bold and swift actions aimed at dismantling policies that have contributed to partisan control over the state legislature.
