From the Article:

New guidance on how local clerks should secure and maintain absentee ballot drop boxes has been approved by the Wisconsin Elections Commission. The 6-0 vote comes days after Republican National Committee Chair Michael Whatley said the party doesn’t want “ballots going into drop boxes.”

Drop boxes are back in Wisconsin because the Wisconsin Supreme Court’s liberal majority reversed a near-total ban on the receptacles July 5. It was a reversal of the court’s previous conservative majority’s order in 2022, which said unsupervised ballot drop boxes outside a clerk’s office were illegal.

Following the conservative majority’s ruling two years ago, former President Donald Trump falsely claimed the results of the 2020 election were also illegal. Trump lost Wisconsin to former Vice President Joe Biden by around 21,000 votes.
