MADISON, Wis. (Legal Newsline) - Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen said Thursday he will appeal a court ruling today that threw out his lawsuit to force officials to cross-check information on voter rolls.
"I believe today's decision was an erroneous interpretation of the law," the Republican attorney general said. "When a lower court gets the law wrong, parties appeal to a higher court, and that's what I will do.
Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi dismissed the lawsuit Thursday, saying Van Hollen lacked the authority to sue to force the state Government Accountability Board to comply with the federal Help America Vote Act of 2002, known as HAVA.

He might check to see if Obama is eligible to run at all.
Another example of why it is so important who ones puts into the White House.
Judicial appointments can burn you for years with their “making laws from the bench”.
This woman is a disgrace.
No one seems to “have standing” in this country any more.
The “judge” is from Dane County. Dane County, to quote a friend of mine, is the “black heart of liberalism”.”
I was born in Madison. There was a time when it was a Republican stronghold.
That went into the toilet when Paul Soglin got elected and declared that the STUDENTS at the UW had the right to vote on local issues.
I think there are students nationwide who are voting at their campuses and also absentee from their parents homes.
All it takes is one leader...for example, Thomas Jefferson, Lenin, Castro, Louis Riel. Unfortunately,so far, he’s not on the horizon in America.
%% HAVA ... negata, HAVA ... %%
The two largest cities in WI are bastions of corrupt Democrat politicians. The state has become nearly unlivable because of the teachers’ unions and the voter fraud.
Those who fought for the Slavers were the biggest suckers in history.
Near as I can tell lately with all the rulings is...no one, anywhere has any authority or standing to bring any lawsuit about anything election related. Have I got that right?”
It’s getting near time to converge on washington and petition for standing.
Is this where we grab our pitchforks, torches, tar and feathers?
In Arizona, the Secretary of State has responsibility for the conduct of elections. She would be the State official with standing to sue, whereas our AG would not.
This could be the basis of the judge’s ruling in Wisconsin as well.
Thanks to the win at any cost liberals.
“Van Hollen’s DOJ Complaint was filed with Dane County Judge Maryann Sumi’s office.
So who is Maryann Sumi?
Sumi is listed as a supporter of former Wisconsin Supreme Court Judge Louis Butler on his website for his unsuccessful reelection bid.
Butler was defeated by the GOP political machine on April 1 by former Burnett County Circuit Judge Michael Gableman.
S umi has been on the bench since 1998 and enjoys a reputation as a fine jurist and political liberal, informed observers say.”
....
I note that when a liberal/socialist/democrat is a judge, THAT individual (regardless of qualification) is always smart and well-informed. Regardless, of course, on other qualifications. This “judge” is also “politically involved” - supporting other Stalinists. Er, liberals.
There is ONE reason and ONE reason only that liberals (including those sitting on court benches) would not want voters and voter rolls verified - because it is consistently liberals and the Democrat Party that benefit from the bad and well-known corrupt voter rolls.
If Republicans were the hardest hit with voter verification, you can guarantee that it would be mandated in all 50 states.
And why is it that Democrats are the ones most affected by making sure voters really are eligible (and alive), and that the people voting really are who they claim to be? It isn’t because of race (as the race-baiting liberals would have us believe), it is because the Democrats count on all those ineligible votes to continue their power grab.
3. An AG can’t even get a fair shake in court asking for an investigation.
Shouldn't the AG know that and gone that route?
gradually?
I’d say we’ve been vindicated for at least 100 years, more like 140.
Madison is Marxist Central in the U.S. Runs neck and neck with Berkeley. All politicians who live there, even the conservatives and judges, are exposed to local media, to neighbors, and to a general atmosphere of extremism.
And we wonder why Russian observers are here to monitor this election? They are in awe of Obama’s tactics when the man doesn’t have his own KGB yet.
Too damn true...course he has Ayers planning for him.
