JTN:
A Wisconsin federal judge dismissed a lawsuit that sought to toss out the witness requirement for absentee voting.
U.S. District Judge James Peterson on Thursday ruled against a lawsuit brought by Democratic election lawyer Marc Elias’ law firm that attempted to cancel the witness requirement for voters who cast absentee ballots.
Elias Law Group argued that the witness requirement violated the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and Civil Rights Act of 1964.
According to the court’s opinion, “the most obvious problem” with the attorneys’ argument “is that it simply does not make any sense.” more
