12-26 Voter Purge Lawsuit

todayDecember 26, 2019

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Republican legislators have voted to hire their own attorneys in a federal lawsuit seeking to keep more than 200,000 voter registrations in place. The decision Monday underscores the rift between the GOP and Democratic Attorney General Josh Kaul. Republicans don’t trust him to defend their position in the lawsuit. The Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty has filed a state lawsuit demanding election officials deactivate the registrations because the voters may have moved. A judge this month ruled in WILL’s favor. The state Department of Justice appealed and the League of Women Voters filed a federal lawsuit to stop the purge.
