Conservatives filed a lawsuit in 2020 demanding that the Wisconsin Elections Commission remove voters from the rolls if they didn't respond to mailings within 30 days. Commission officials announced Wednesday that they deactivated 174,307 voter registrations on Saturday because the voters hadn't cast a ballot in four years and didn't respond to a mailing. The commission on Saturday also deactivated 31,854 registrations of voters who may have moved and didn't respond to a mailing. The state Supreme Court ultimately ruled that the commission wasn't required to remove voters within that window. People can check their registration status through the MyVote Wisconsin website at https://myvote.wi.gov or by contacting their municipal clerk.
