The Wisconsin Department of Justice is investigating and has referred several cases to the Racine County District Attorney\u2019s Office for potential criminal charges. In one high profile case, the Wisconsin Elections Commission found that Donald Trump\u2019s campaign may have illegally requested absentee ballots for voters who had not requested them. This could lead to serious consequences if more evidence is found that confirms this was done intentionally or with malicious intent. The Election Commission also noted that there were a high number of requests for absentee ballots in Racine County, raising concerns about whether these requests were legitimate or fraudulent. As the investigation continues, it is important to ensure that all election laws are followed and any violations are handled appropriately by both state and local authorities so as to ensure free and fair elections take place in Racine County.<\/span>\u00a0<span class=\"unselectable\"><sup>\u00a0\u00a0<a>\u00a0Show Source Texts<\/a><\/sup><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"article-paragraph\"><span class=\"article-line\"><span class=\"gen_text_normal\">Wisconsin elections involve local elections officials, poll workers, and the county sheriff.
