| 0:00.0 | Democrats are getting worried about Senate races in blue states, while Hillary makes a pathetic |
| 0:04.0 | attempt to demonize Justice Thomas. I'm Greg Corrumbus, join Jim Garrity of National Review, |
| 0:08.5 | and me each weekday for the Three Martini Lunch Podcast. We'll give you the good, |
| 0:12.0 | bad and crazy news of the day and lots of laughs too. Follow the Three Martini Lunch wherever you |
| 0:16.5 | get your podcasts. Hello and welcome to the Byron York Show, the no-chitchat podcast. |
| 0:26.0 | We'd like to get right into it, and what we're going to get into today is something that's not |
| 0:30.8 | really on the news at this very moment. We have inflation up to 9.1% on an annual basis. |
| 0:41.2 | We have the January 6th Committee doing what it's doing. I have lots of other things going on, |
| 0:45.9 | but there was a story that caught my eye that I wanted to know a little bit more about |
| 0:52.0 | that I'm going to talk about. It involves the state of Wisconsin, and you probably saw the headline |
| 0:56.3 | on this. The Supreme Court of Wisconsin ruled that drop boxes, these boxes where you can drop off |
| 1:07.1 | a filled out ballot, drop boxes are illegal in Wisconsin, and that set off a number of events. So |
| 1:14.9 | that's what we're going to talk about today. Obviously relevant to the whole 2020 election story. |
| 1:21.6 | So drop boxes really were a big part of the 2020 election in Wisconsin. The state election board, |
| 1:30.1 | the Wisconsin Election Commission, on its own, installed more than 500 of them. I think it was |
| 1:37.6 | 528 across the state in the run up to the voting in Wisconsin. Now a lot of this was done on the |
| 1:45.6 | basis, the assumption that with the fear of COVID, people didn't want to go to polling places, |
| 1:52.0 | congregate there. So they could drop these ballots and these drop boxes. Now the Election Commission |
| 1:59.0 | just decided to do it on its own authority. Didn't ask the legislature to do it. Didn't get any |
| 2:05.3 | permission from the legislature to do it. Just did it. The problem with that is that Wisconsin law |
| 2:12.0 | requires that absentee ballots must be cast in one of two ways, one by the United States male, |
| 2:22.4 | being dropped into the United States male, or two being personally delivered to an election clerk. |
