Wausau Mayor Doug Diny will not face criminal charges after removing an absentee ballot drop box ahead of the 2024 election, according to a special prosecutor.

The prosecutor said there was not enough evidence to prove a crime, noting the box was empty and had never been opened at the time it was taken.

The incident drew attention in Wisconsin, sparking debate over the security and use of absentee ballot drop boxes in the key battleground state.
