WI Judge Orders State Election Regulator To Keep Noncitizens Off Voter Roles

[SSG Snuggle Bunny]

I'm confused. I was told repeatedly that this wasn't happening.

state court ruling late last week ordering the Wisconsin Elections Commission to deal with its dirty voter rolls could have national implications in the election-integrity battle to ensure only U.S. citizens vote in U.S. elections.

Waukesha County Circuit Judge Michael Maxwell issued writ of mandamus requiring the state’s election regulator check Wisconsin’s voter registration list for noncitizens. The judge enjoined the Elections Commission and local elections offices from accepting voter registrations without first verifying the citizenship status of the applicant.

The order should not be necessary, since making sure registered voters are actually eligible is the State Election Regulator's job!
