Which election law change was most boneheaded?

When Scott Walker planned to apply for a recount in the 2018 Wisconsin governor's election after losing by 1.1%, only to realize that he couldn't due to a law he signed saying the losing margin had to be less than 1%.

Did he? I mean it doesn't matter because no way a 1.1% margin gets overturned on a recount.

Did he? I mean it doesn't matter because no way a 1.1% margin gets overturned on a recount.

Rebecca Kleefisch told supporters at a Walker rally in the early morning of the 7th to prepare for a recount because the race was too close to call. The Milwaukee absentee ballots were still being counted at the time, and once they were tabulated, the margin became too wide to allow for a recount under the new law.

Ah it wasn't really a self own. It wouldn't have really helped to recount there as it would have still gone to Evers. Seems like a reasonably good common- sense law for statewide races.
