“Just before the sun rose Wednesday, Republicans in the state Senate by a one-vote margin approved legislation to limit early voting and diminish the powers of the incoming Democratic governor and attorney general,” the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
“The Assembly continued to debate it and was expected to pass it soon. Republicans — who spent most of their overnight lame-duck session behind closed doors negotiating among themselves — also hoped to pass a bill to protect coverage of pre-existing conditions after Democrats won every statewide office last month after campaigning on the issue.”
