A Wisconsin judge ordered the state to take as many as 234,000 people off its registered-voter list Friday because they may have moved — a decision that could impede residents of this swing state from voting in next year’s presidential election.
The case centers on a letter that the state Elections Commission sent in October to hundreds of thousands of voters, asking them to respond if they were still at that address or to update their registrations if they had moved.
Conservatives filed a lawsuit alleging that to avoid fraud, the commission should have thrown out the registrations of voters who did not respond to the mailing within 30 days, the Associated Press reported. The Elections Commission, composed of three Republicans and three Democrats, is challenging the suit by arguing that it has the legal power to manage the registered voter list and that removing people now would cause confusion if some of them had not actually moved.
President Trump won Wisconsin by fewer than 23,000 votes in 2016. Republicans and Democrats alike are closely watching this court case for its potential impact in 2020, while liberals worry that the voters who would be removed are more likely to be Democrats.

Apparently the left doesn’t like it too much when we pull our version of Dane County judge here in Wisconsin. Glad its my home county :)
I assume it now goes to the WISSC which is conservative controlled.
“That’s right. If they want to vote in Wisconsin, they can reregister at the polling place on election day.”
And have proper documentation.
Yep, it’s really weird that so many of those mystery voters vote D’rat, ain’t it?
Very funny
