Wisconsin Election Officials: May Not Know Results Until Wednesday

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2020 -- 12:06 PM

-Wisconsin election officials will be working overtime on Election Night to deliver complete and accurate election results to the public and the news media, according to the Wisconsin Elections Commission.

“Due to the pandemic and the high number of absentee ballots, it will likely be Wednesday before all the unofficial results are in,” said Meagan Wolfe, Wisconsin’s chief election official. “It doesn’t mean something went wrong ??" it means election officials are doing their jobs and making sure every legitimate ballot gets counted. ”It is important for voters and the media to understand how votes are counted in Wisconsin,” Wolfe said. “When people make assumptions about vote counting based on what happens in other states or rumors, it can lead to misinformation.”

The WEC has produced a series of short videos and fact sheets for voters explaining how absentee voting works, how ballots are counted, how Wisconsin ensures accurate results, and how long it may take to get election results. The videos are online at https://elections.wi.gov/2020.
