The incident is the latest example in swing state Wisconsin of the fight over whether communities will allow voters to use absentee ballot drop boxes. The Wisconsin Supreme Court in July ruled that drop boxes are legal, but left it up to local communities to decide whether to use them.

Wausau voters may now use the clerk’s office drop box to drop off absentee ballots after its return Monday following its removal by Mayor Doug Diny.

An absentee ballot drop box that the mayor of a central Wisconsin city removed a week ago was back in place on Monday.

The Wausau city clerk said Monday the official drop box is back outside of city hall and secured to the ground.
