Complaint alleges Wisconsin city violated Constitution in 2020 election


Racine officials 'involved private corporations and their employees' in running vote


The complaint contends Racine "failed to comply with state laws" in return for more than $940,000 in cash given to the city.

"The [Wisconsin Elections] Commission, as the responsible entity in the administration of election laws, never opined on the legality of private corporate conditions affecting existing election laws."

Mason, a Democrat, did not respond to requests from the Spotlight for comment.
