Republicans Embrace Early Voting with New Campaign Rollout in Wisconsin

Tuesday, July 25th, 2023 -- 1:00 PM

(Bob Hague, WRN) Republicans reverse course on early voting.

RNC Chair Ronna McDaniel announced Monday that the party has chosen Wisconsin to be the first state to implement its new "Bank Your Vote" early voting initiative. The campaign will encourage voters to cast their ballots ahead of Election Day. Voting by mail has generally been more popular among Democrats here and elsewhere around the country.

Former President Donald Trump, who continues to deny his 2020 loss, has cast doubt on the practice but McDaniel said she has spoken to Trump, and he’s indicated his support for the campaign and understands it will help Republicans compete.
