GET ME REWRITE: Wisconsin State Senate held hostage by election denier members

“If the State Senate does not choose to take up the bill this March in their remaining session days, it will die an unfortunate death this legislative session,” Assembly Elections Committee chair Rep. Scott Krug, R-Nekoosa, said in a statement along with ranking committee member Rep. Lee Snodgrass, D-Appleton. 
That frustration reached Assembly Speaker Robin Vos, R-Rochester, perhaps the most powerful legislator. 
“I have no idea why senators would not want to solve the problem of late-night ballot dumps,” Vos told reporters last month. “Hopefully, they’ll come to their senses and can get the vote in the March floor period.” 
Currently, ballots can’t be processed until the morning of Election Day.
