Minn. court dismisses complaint on voter database

July 23, 2009

St. Paul, Minn. (AP) — Minnesota's top court has dismissed a lawsuit from a conservative group that went after Secretary of State Mark Ritchie and county election officials.

The order from the Minnesota Supreme Court says "the time for contesting any irregularity in the conduct of the 2008 election is long since passed."

The group, Minnesota Majority, alleged that Ritchie and county officials failed to update voter records promptly. Ritchie said the group's research wasn't supported.

Ritchie's office released the court order on Friday. (Copyright 2009 by The Associated Press. All Rights Reserved.) AP-NY-07-23-09 1829EDT
