(Jim Matthews/The Green Bay Press-Gazette via AP) (Associated Press)MADISON, Wis. — The fight over restricting early voting in Wisconsin returned to federal court Monday, three days after Gov. A coalition of liberal groups, with the support of former Democratic U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder, asked a federal judge to block implementation of the early voting restrictions. The same judge in 2016 struck down a similar two-week early voting limitation as unconstitutional. Local communities could decide when within the two-week period to offer early voting. The groups asked the court to act to strike down the early voting change before the next statewide general election on April 2.
