Con­ser­v­a­tive law firm sues Wis­con­sin elec­tion offi­cial over access to vot­er rolls

A con­ser­v­a­tive law firm in Wis­con­sin has filed a law­suit against Wis­con­sin Elec­tions Com­mis­sion Admin­is­tra­tor Mea­gan Wolfe over the pub­lic access to the state’s vot­er reg­is­tra­tion list, accord­ing to a report from Wis­con­sin Pub­lic Radio.
The Pub­lic Inter­est Legal Foun­da­tion filed a fed­er­al law­suit against Wolfe because they believe she has vio­lat­ed the fed­er­al Nation­al Vot­er Reg­is­tra­tion Act. 
NVRA was cre­at­ed in 1993 and requires states to make their vot­er reg­is­tra­tion lists avail­able for pub­lic inspec­tion. At the time of the pas­sage of the NVRA, Wis­con­sin, among five oth­er states, was exempt from the law as the state had same-day reg­is­tra­tion when the act was signed into law. 
WEC cur­rent­ly charges for vot­er reg­is­tra­tion lists via Bad­ger Vot­ers, an agency a part of WEC. Fees for pur­chas­ing lists range from $25 to $12,500. The vot­er reg­is­tra­tion lists do not include a voter’s date of birth, driver’s license infor­ma­tion, and Social Secu­ri­ty num­bers.
