(WRN) -A conservative group wants to purge thousands of people from the state's voter rolls.Last month, the state Elections Commission mailed notices to some 234-thousand voters, telling them to update their registrations with their new addresses if they've moved, or to notify the commission if they have not. Voters who fail to act will have their registrations suspended after April 2021. But the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty contends state law requires the commission to remove people from the voter rolls much sooner.
Three men it represents filed a lawsuit Wednesday asking an Ozaukee County judge to force the commission to remove people from the voter rolls if they did not respond to the commission's letter.
