The number of voters casting a ballot in Wisconsin is implausibly high. Even assuming an historic high % of registered voters voting (75%; cp. 2016 67.3%; 2012 70.1%) over 700,000 voters (a 20% increase) would have had to be added to the rolls in 2 days. Not reasonable.

Here's the math: At least 3,292,000 votes cast in WI 2020. 75% of 4,389,333 = 3,292,000. Per the WI Elec. Comm, on 11/1 there were 3,684,726 reg. voters. 4,389,333 (the # of reg. voters needed to have a 75% turnout 11/3) - 3,684,726 = 704,607 (+19.1%) new reg. voters in 2 days.
