Republican National Convention Chairman Michael Whatley announced that the City of Milwaukee will grant poll watchers full access to observe the voting process. 

The RNC filed a lawsuit Monday against the Milwaukee Elections Commission after the city announced that it would limit the number of poll watchers allowed at certain polling locations on Election Day. 

Milwaukee limited poll watchers at three early voting polling locations, according to the lawsuit.

The commission told chief inspectors, “[w]hile most of our polling places are large enough to accommodate a few observers, there are a few that have very small voting rooms. These chief inspectors will limit the number of observers to two at a time, one from each political party,” the lawsuit reads.

“However, there was no legal basis for the chief inspector in any of the Polling Sites to limit the number of observers to two. There is ample space at these locations for more observers. It was an arbitrary decision,” the RNC’s complaint said. 

Whatley said in a post on X that the lawsuit successfully got the city to rescind the restrictions. 

“A big win for Badger State voters!” Whatley said.
