“I won the race for governor by less than 30,000 votes,” Gov. Tony Evers tweeted. “This move pushed by Republicans to remove 200,000 Wisconsinites from the voter rolls is just another attempt at overriding the will of the people.”
“I won the race for governor by less than 30,000 votes,” Democratic Gov. Tony Evers tweeted on Friday. “This move pushed by Republicans to remove 200,000 Wisconsinites from the voter rolls is just another attempt at overriding the will of the people and stifling the democratic process.”
The judge's ruling was a win for conservatives, who argued that state law requires the elections commission to deactivate voters who didn't respond within 30 days to a mailing sent in October flagging them as potentially having moved. The commission wanted to wait to remove anyone until 2021, citing problems in 2017 when voters who had not moved were tossed off the rolls.
“Are we going to keep people on the rolls who shouldn’t be there or are we going to have clean election rolls?” Spindell said.
