A legal complaint filed by a Wisconsin conservative law firm argues 234,000 of the state’s voters should be purged before the 2020 primary elections because they have failed to update where they currently live.
The complaint, filed by the Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty against the Wisconsin Elections Commission on Tuesday, says state law requires the elections commission to purge voters from the voting rolls if they do not respond to mailings asking them to update their information within 30 days.
But the commission ruled in a June vote that it would allow these voters to stay on the rolls until spring 2021.
“State agencies comprised of political appointees and unelected staff do not have the authority to invent or amend policy contrary to state law,” the institute’s president and general counsel, Rick Esenberg, said in a statement.
“Whatever the intent of the Wisconsin Election(s) Commission’s action, it is illegal and must be remedied immediately.”
The commission sent out letters to 234,000 registered voters who told another state agency about a change in address, asking them if their status was up-to-date.
