Wisconsin court blocks purging of more than 200,000 voters from rolls | TheHill

By Thomas A. Smith

A Wisconsin state court of appeals on Tuesday put on hold a ruling requiring the urgent removal of more than 200,000 names from the state s voter rolls, the latest twist in a closely watched legal fight playing out in the battleground state ahead of the 2020 election.

The ruling comes after a lower court judge last month ordered the purging of roughly 234,000 people from voter rolls because they may have moved, and a day after the state’s elections commission and several of its members were found in contempt of court for not complying with the removal order.
