MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin election officials are launching an investigation into how nearly 200 absentee ballots went uncounted in Madison. The Wisconsin Elections Commission voted unanimously yesterday to investigate whether Madison City Clerk Maribeth Witzel-Behl failed to comply with state law or abused her discretion. According to commission documents, the clerk's staff told the commission on Dec. 18 that they had discovered 193 absentee ballots from the Nov. 5 election that hadn't been counted. Witzel-Behl's office said the ballots were found in a courier bag and inside a tabulator. The clerk's office said in a news release Dec. 26 that the ballots didn't affect the outcome of any race or referendum.
