MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A judge has blocked Wisconsin election officials from using a federal voter registration form, finding they never formally approved its use. Conservative law firm Wisconsin Institute for Law and Liberty filed a lawsuit last year asking a judge to declare the National Mail Voter Registration Application illegal in the state. The lawsuit alleges that the Wisconsin Elections Commission never authorized the use of the form and never developed administrative rules governing its use. Waukesha County Circuit Judge Michael Maxwell agreed in his ruling Tuesday and declared use of the form is unlawful.
