The Wisconsin election was a mess. But there’s one element of it worth emulating.

Wisconsin held the first coronavirus election on Tuesday. It was a disaster, but an oddly helpful one.

Helpful, because those snaking lines of mask-clad voters can serve as a warning to other states: Strengthen your mail-based voting systems now, or risk catastrophe. And the delay in reporting the state’s results could accustom us to a new normal, one in which elections operate at a slower rhythm and change for the better. CONT.
