Voting in wisconsins president ial primary will go ahead later on tuesday after the u. S. Supreme court blocked an attempt to delay the vote due to the coronavirus pandemic hours earlier the state Supreme Court<\/a> ruled the primary couldnt be postponed the democratic governor tony evans had ordered the election be postponed till june the 9th john hendren reporting from chicago now he says the Supreme Court<\/a> ruling was made along partisan lines. It has been a whirlwind of a day it began with wisconsin governor tony even as declaring in any and executive order that voting would not go forward on tuesday that election would be postponed to june 9th then we had the state Supreme Court<\/a> ruling no in fact he does not have the authority to do that and that election will go ahead on tuesday and then we hear that the u. S. Supreme court has also shot down a Lower Court Ruling<\/a> that had extended mail in voting until the 13th of april and said in fact when the polls close tomorrow that is when the last mail in ballots can be accepted so this election will not go any much any beyond tomorrow there was some question they might not even be able to call it for several days after that in fact it will end tomorrow according to the u. S. Supreme court and theres a political aspect to this tony even as a democrat the legislature in wisconsin is republican dominated and in the u. S. Supreme court that was also a vote that happen along party lines there were 5 republican appointees versus 4 democratic justices on that Court Essentially<\/a> the bottom line is democrats in wisconsin believe that the vote tomorrow will be suppressed in urban areas where a lot of democrats live and republicans believe it wont be suppressed so much in republican areas which are largely rural. The acting u. S. Navy secretary has apologized for his Harsh Criticism<\/a> of the former commander of an Aircraft Carrier<\/a> which was stricken with coronavirus captain Brett Crozier<\/a> was called quote naive or stupid for sending out a lesser describing the worsening situation on the vessel the document was leaked leading to crozier being stood down as commander in the 200. 00 crew on board have tested positive for the virus the apology is an abrupt turnaround from the acting navy secretarys initial response which said he stood by his comments as the outbreak worsens in latin america colombia has extended its nationwide quarantine for the 2 weeks i mean many people cant go to work including venezuelan migrants who are left without the means to survive in america editor this union has more. Its a long and torturous road back home for these venezuelan migrants hundreds are trying to make the 556 kilometer long journey to colombias border with venezuela on foot fleeing not just the cold 1000 at demick but acute unemployment the disobliging them to return home but again i say doesnt get with the situation that is happening with coronavirus things have changed people dont treat us the same its not possible to go out to sell because there are no more people on the street because of the situation. In israel into also returning to the border with brazil with a pandemic is spreading poverty as well as disease.
