WI-GOV: Tom Tiffany (R), regular absentee voter, says 'I don't believe we should be doing mail-in voting'

US Rep. Tom Tiffany, the presumptive Republican nominee in this fall’s election for Wisconsin governor, told a podcast host Thursday, “I don’t believe we should be doing mail-in voting,” making an exception only for members of the US Armed Forces.

More than 1.5 million Wisconsin voters cast absentee ballots in the November 2024 presidential election in Wisconsin, including about 600,000 that were mailed in, demonstrating its ongoing popularity.

Records indicate Tiffany has voted absentee 12 times since 2016, according to an official with the Democratic Party of Wisconsin. It was not clear if those ballots were cast by mail or in-person at his local election clerk’s office.

Tiffany made his comment while answering a listener question on the DrydenWire podcast.
