VOTER PURGE

PORT WASHINGTON, Wis. — A Wisconsin judge on Monday found the state's election commission to be in contempt and ordered the bipartisan panel to immediately begin removing up to 209,000 names from the state's voter rolls or face hundreds of dollars in fines for each day they don't.

ELECTION SECURITY

MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin officials want to launch a public relations push to reassure people that elections are secure.

ELECTION 2020-WISCONSIN-EX-FELONS

NFC CHAMPIONSHIP

SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The NFL's most common playoff matchup of the last quarter century will have its eighth edition when San Francisco hosts Green Bay in the NFC championship game. The 49ers beat the Packers 37-8 in November. By Pro Football Writer Josh Dubow. UPCOMING: 750 words, photos by 6 p.m. CST.

SEAHAWKS-LYNCH

GREEN BAY, Wis. — Marshawn Lynch muscled his way into the end zone for two more postseason touchdowns for the Seattle Seahawks, capping an unexpected bonus chapter at what could have, this time, been the end of his NFL career. In Lynch's typical do-it-his-own-way fashion, after Seattle was ousted in the divisional round by Green Bay in a 28-23 defeat on Sunday night, the 33-year-old running back offered little insight during a brief postgame interview into his possible retirement.

SEAHAWKS WRAPUP

RENTON, Wash. — For the third time in Pete Carroll's tenure, the Seattle Seahawks were left wondering what if after a second-half rally in the divisional round of the playoffs fell short.
