A Wisconsin judge has cited Democrats with contempt of court for refusing to clean voter rolls as ordered.

From the article:

More than 200,000 individuals who failed to respond to a deactivation notice sent by the elections commission are still on the state’s voter rolls.

Judge Paul Malloy ordered the elections commission to immediately remove these individuals from the system, but three Democratic members refused and fought the order.

Now, Malloy is fining the commission—which is made up of three Republicans and three Democrats—$50 a day. He is also fining its three Democratic members—Ann Jacobs, Julie Glancey and Mark Thomsen—$250 a day until they begin to clean up the system.

"I can’t be any clearer than this,” Malloy said, according to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel. "They need to follow my order.”
