​
The Apr 2, 2024 election in Wisconsin will include three important sections: your local, nonpartisan elections; a presidential preference election (where you may vote for one candidate in one political party); and a referendum which includes two questions. The referendum could change the Wisconsin state constitution.​
The referendum states:
Question 1: “Use of private funds in election administration. Shall section 7 (1) of article III of the constitution be created to provide that private donations and grants may not be applied for, accepted, expended, or used in connection with the conduct of any primary, election, or referendum?"
​
-
A "yes" vote supports this amendment to prohibit any level of government in the state from applying or accepting non-governmental funds or equipment for election administration. This means only tax-payer funds can be used for election administration.
-
A "no" vote opposes this amendment to prohibit any level of government in the state from applying or accepting non-governmental funds or equipment for election administration. This means election administrators can seek additional funding for election administration.
Question 2: “Election officials. Shall section 7 (2) of article III of the constitution be created to provide that only election officials designated by law may perform tasks in the conduct of primaries, elections, and referendums?"
​
-
A "yes" vote supports this amendment to provide that only election officials designated by law may administer elections. This means no other staff or volunteers can be used to administer elections.
-
A "no" vote opposes this amendment to provide that only election officials designated by law may administer elections. This means that election officials can obtain help from other municipal staff or volunteers if necessary for the administration of the election.

Fair Elections Center Know Your Rights Guides
Fair Elections Center has created "Know Your Voting Rights" guides for ten states where we have focused our work to help voters if they encounter problems at the polls. These guides will help give in-person voters the tools to assert their rights and protect their freedom to vote. Voters have important rights under federal law, but some of these rules at the polling place vary by state. While most voters will likely have a smooth voting experience, we want to make sure that they understand what to do if they do run into challenges or other hurdles at the polls.
