Registering to be simpler for the average Kansas voter if this pending lawsuit is successful

From Ballot Access News:

On February 18, some Kansas voters filed a new federal lawsuit to regain their status as registered voters. The case is being handled by the ACLU and seeks to be a class action lawsuit. It is Fish v Kobach, 2:16cv-2105. It is assigned to U.S. District Court Judge John W. Lundstrum, a Bush Sr. appointee.

Even though the U.S. Supreme Court has upheld the federal law that provides a federal voter registration form, and even though that form does not ask applicants to attach proof of citizenship, Kansas will not register voters who use the federal form unless they supply proof of citizenship within 90 days of filing the federal form. The lawsuit challenges Kansas’ policy, and it also challenges the Kansas law that says applicants who use the state form must attach proof of citizenship. The lawsuit says there are 35,000 persons in Kansas who have registered to vote but who are still not on the voter rolls. Others have been purged.
