Summary
Republican mega-donors Dick and Liz Uihlein, major backers of Trump, surveyed employees at their company, Uline, on their voting preferences for the upcoming U.S. election. Uline is based in swing-state Wisconsin, critical for presidential candidates.
Marketed as “anonymous,” the survey requested employees sign in, raising privacy concerns and skepticism among staff.
Liz Uihlein dismissed concerns, calling the survey “for fun” and voluntary, though legal experts warn that such employer requests can be intimidating and may increase employee anxiety.
Federal and state laws prohibit voter intimidation, with Wisconsin specifically criminalizing vote solicitation.
“Anonymous”
“Log in”
Lmao. Nope. I’ve seen that one before. Didn’t get me that time either.
“For fun”
Yea, sure. Hey, you know what else is fun…
And I’m sure it’s just coincidence that everyone who said they were voting for Kamala has to work a double shift tomorrow.
I fucking hate these mother fuckers. They fund Daren Bailey and Bruce Rauner in Illinois. They were also behind the case where a downstate judge threatened to have JB Pritzker arrested for his Covid emergency orders and mask mandates. I will not be upset when they pass away.
Pritzker is one of the most down to earth wealthy people I’ve ever met. I didn’t realize who I was dealing with until later on.
He’s been really good for Illinois, I didn’t want another billionaire and didn’t vote for him in the primary, but I’ll take what I can get. I was disappointed that he rolled back biometric data collection fines.
I guess republicans don’t care about those laws since Orange Jesus will just pardon them, or so they hope. They believe they are on a just crusade… disgusting.
They’re banking on SCOTUS continuing to gut regulatory agencies from having the authority to oversee corporations.
They want their fiefdoms.
That, and they know none of them will see effective penalties for voter intimidation and coercion. Maybe a fine. Maybe a year in jail. Maybe both.
In a just world, these donors would get a year for every employee who took the survey. Just to serve as a deterrent to other multi-millionaire bosses. More likely they’ll weasel out of anything but lawyers fees and a statement on their website.
I hope the state goes after them.
The current DA is pretty fucking liberal as far as DAs go.
And they are a big reason why politics in Wisconsin are so stacked in favor of Republicans. They do a lot of business here and her husband is heir to the Schlitz beer fortune. They fund a lot of the Republican state representatives campaigns.
They are also the main reason why Wisconsin is still a prohibition state in regards to marijuana. Supposedly good Christians don’t want cannabis competing with their much more destructive and addictive product.
