MADISON, Wis. (Legal Newsline) - Wisconsin Attorney General J.B. Van Hollen said Thursday he will appeal a court ruling today that threw out his lawsuit to force officials to cross-check information on voter rolls.
"I believe today's decision was an erroneous interpretation of the law," the Republican attorney general said. "When a lower court gets the law wrong, parties appeal to a higher court, and that's what I will do.
Dane County Circuit Judge Maryann Sumi dismissed the lawsuit Thursday, saying Van Hollen lacked the authority to sue to force the state Government Accountability Board to comply with the federal Help America Vote Act of 2002, known as HAVA.

Let me get this straight. The State Attorney General has no authority to try to have the law enforced? OTOH, why doesn't he just charge the members of the GAB with willful violation of the law? Let them run to court to try to overturn his actions.
The fix is in. No longer can citizens of this country 1) have a legitimate 1 person, 1 vote election, and 2) question the basic eligibility of a person who is running for the highest office in the land. A conservative would have to win by 10 or 20% in 2012 to overcome the voter fraud to come.... You think it’s bad this year, just wait till future elections.
Near as I can tell lately with all the rulingsis...no one, anywhere has any authority or standing to bring any lawsuit about anything election related. Have I got that right?
If a State Attorney General has no authority on behalf of the people he represents to sue for accountability, then who does???
HAVA is Federal law...he has no jurisdiction. His only recourse is to sue.
The Democrats are playing with fire. They are undermining confidence in our electoral system with this blatant fraud. One has to look no further than our financial system to understand how quickly and catastrophically institutions can fail when trust disappears.
This is the one of the most dangerous periods in our history since the 1860s.
ACORN applauded the decision...so obviously it is crooked and anti-American on it’s face. The pinkos win again...for now. Pity.
so VOTERS have no standing,
so the AG has no standing,
THEN WHERE THE H*LL is the DOJ?
Justice Delayed is Justice Denied.

You are correct. The statute, itself, is very specific as to who has the right to enforce that particular law and the state attorney general is not one of them. The United States Attorney General, however, does have enforcement authority.
The “judge” is from Dane County. Dane County, to quote a friend of mine, is the “black heart of liberalism”.
When the citizens have had enough government BS...THE GOVERNMENT BETTER LOOK OUT!!!
Also announce that those on the GAB who refuse to check people's eligibility before they vote will be prosecuted as accomplices in the casting of every fraudulent ballot which would have been caught had they exercised reasonable diligence.
Those of us in the south are gradually being vindicated
I thought that the Supreme Court ruled that the GOP had no standing to force compliance...that it would have to be an AG that would have standing......or do I have it wrong?
It's the last part of that sentence that frustrates me.
If Ubama gets in, there won’t BE future elections—they’ll all be like the ones Saddam Hussein held for years—no opponents (surprise!) and 100% voting for him!
God help us all.
LOL! Commieville Wisconsin judge rules in favor of Wisconsin Communist Party vote manufacturing apparatus. Gee, what a frickin' surprise... ;-)
