Wisconsin Supreme Court: State election commission should not purge movers off voter rolls Jeremy Beaman © Provided by Washington Examiner
The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled on Friday that the state elections commission should not remove voters from voting rolls who might have moved residences.
In a 5-2 decision, the high court ruled that state law authorizes municipal election officials rather than the state election commission to change an individual’s registration status. Writing for the court, Judge Brian Hagedorn said that while state law “requires that the registration status be changed for those who move out of their municipality, it gives this responsibility to municipal election officials, not to the [state] Commission.”
