Is De la Mora Really a Lawyer?

WILL filed a suit against Hartland for utilizing ballot drop-boxes.

Hartland's attorney is Hector De la Mora.  He serves as the attorney for a number of small SE Wisconsin municipalities.

...According to de la Mora, one box was adjacent to the police department while the other was adjacent to the library.

"Both areas were well lit, and I believe they were under camera surveillance," de la Mora said. "The village intends to make it clear that we were always following advice provided by the ultimate authority, which is the election commission."...

No, Hector, the state election commission is NOT the "ultimate authority."

..."State law is crystal clear that absentee ballots can be cast in two ways: by mail or delivered in person to the clerk," said WILL Deputy Counsel Luke Berg....

Law School 101:  State law IS the "ultimate authority."
