Two Items to Remember for Election Day in Wisconsin

Another Election Day arrives in less than three weeks in Wisconsin, on April 1, and City of Dodgeville voters should remember two rules that some voters have become confused about during recent elections.

In 2006, Wisconsin adopted uniform polling places hours for every polling place in our state. From Ashland to Beloit, and from the most rural town halls to downtown Milwaukee, every polling place is open for voters from 7:00 a.m. until 8:00 p.m.

Registration Forms from National Groups May Be Confusing for Voters

There may be greater voter interest in Wisconsin’s elections this year, due to a state Supreme Court contest on April 1, and the race for U.S. President and legislative elections this autumn. As more people register to vote, it’s important to know the rules.

One potential source of confusion for new and long-time voters alike is a generic voter registration form provided by national groups. Area residents may receive “official-looking” forms in the mail with warnings which cause them to think they need to register more than once.

State Voter Database Sometimes Needs Additional Information

Wisconsin’s Statewide Voter Registration System (SVRS) is the database that helps municipal clerks track voters as they register to vote, move, change their names, or pass away.

The information you provide on your voter registration form makes it easier for you to vote quickly on Election Day. When you are properly registered, you can simply arrive at the polling place, give your name and current address to the poll worker, and receive your ballot.
