<http://www.sheboyganpress.com/viewart/20140312/SHE0101/303120303/Wisconsin-Senate-narrowly-passes-elections-bills>:

"With just one vote to spare, Republicans who control the state Senate

on Wednesday passed a series of hotly contested election law changes, 
including disallowing casting early votes on the weekends or past 7
p.m. 
in the two weeks leading up to an election."
