Evers quashes bill that would bar Wisconsinites from voting over unpaid court fees

[RandySF]

Gov. Tony Evers has vetoed a bill that would have stopped many Wisconsinites from voting because of unpaid restitution or other court-related fines and fees.

The GOP-backed proposal was among the bills vetoed by the Democratic governor last week.

Currently, Wisconsinites with felony convictions can’t vote until they’ve finished their prison time as well as any probation, parole or extended supervision.

But the vetoed bill would have required Wisconsinites with felonies to pay any costs related to their convictions before their right to vote was restored.
