Federal Judge Throws Out Marc Elias’s Lawsuit Against Wyoming’s Voter ID Law

Hol

Well-known
A federal judge on Tuesday dismissed a lawsuit brought by Hillary Clinton attorney Marc Elias, who was attempting to sue Wyoming to force officials to scotch a law requiring voters to show proof of citizenship and state residency to vote.

Ultimately, U.S. District Court Judge Scott Skavdahl dismissed the case brought by Elias and the left-wing organization Equality State Policy Center (ESPC).

In a statement announcing the win, Wyoming Secretary of State Chuck Gray celebrated the decision as a “decisive victory” for the Cowboy State’s election integrity efforts.

After Elias’s challenge to Wyoming House Bill 156 failed, Gray said that the law was “common sense” and noted that it was in line with President Donald Trump’s priorities on election integrity.

“I’m extremely pleased with the court’s ruling granting our motion to dismiss this outrageously wrong lawsuit,” Gray said in his statement on Tuesday. “This is a huge win for the people of Wyoming. Proof of citizenship for registering to vote is a common sense, conservative election integrity measure and was the number one priority of our administration’s conservative election integrity reform agenda and a key priority of President Trump.”
