Wisconsin Elections Commission undertook a campaign to position about 500 unmanned drop boxes for the collection of absentee ballots.
It is illegal to use ballots not collected collected by the the specified methods.
Wis. Stat. § 6.87(6) mandates that “any ballot not

By law, ballots collected via unmanned drop boxes CAN NOT BE INCLUDED IN CERTIFIED RESULTS.

They also relaxed absentee ID requirements.
Registering to vote by absentee ballot requires photo identification, EXCEPT for those who register as "indefinitely confined” (IC) or “hospitalized.”

You can only declare yourself "indefinitely confined” for certain reasons.
WISC. STAT. § 6.86(2)(a) Registering for indefinite confinement requires certifying confinement “because of age, physical illness or infirmity or [because the voter] is disabled for an indefinite period.”

But some clerks told everyone to declare themselves IC.
On March 25, in clear violation of Wisconsin law, County Clerks Scott McDonnell and George Christensen both issued guidance that all voters should mark themselves as “indefinitely confined” because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Luckily SCOWI stepped in
On March 31, the WI Supreme Court unanimously confirmed that the clerks’ “advice was legally incorrect” and potentially dangerous because “voters may be misled to exercise their right to vote in ways that are inconsistent with WISC. STAT. § 6.86(2).”

But WEC kept everyone who had already declared themselves IC.
On May 13, the Administrator of WEC issued a directive to the Wisconsin clerks prohibiting removal of voters from the registry for indefinite-confinement status even if the voter is no longer “indefinitely confined.”

How many people declared themselves IC before it was stopped? About 159,000
According to statistics kept by the WEC, nearly 216,000 voters said they were indefinitely confined in the 2020 election, nearly a fourfold increase from nearly 57,000 voters in 2016.

Again, the margin of victory for Biden was only 20,682 votes.
Regardless of these violations, Wisconsin illegally certified their results in favor of Joe Biden.
PA, GA, and MI had similar violations.
