Nygren asks Dane County court to put him on ballot

GOP state Rep. John Nygren asked a Dane County court today to order the Government Accountability Board to place him on the ballot in the 30th SD recall election.

Nygren also asked for an order staying the GAB's decision to deny him a spot on the ballot after the board ruled he was two short of the 400 valid signatures needed to qualify.

He also raised an alternative of requiring the GAB to take more time to review the challenge to his nomination papers and his response, arguing there was an "unreasonably short time allowed" for both. The challenges to his nomination papers were filed on Friday, and the GAB required a response by 8 a.m. Monday.
