LWVLA Voting Resources


Voter education is an important League priority.  Our Voting Resource pages have been developed by members of our Voter Services team as a reference for both the public and our members  who volunteer throughout the community to educate and advocate for voters.

We believe in the integrity of our elections, so we provide current, reliable and accurate information about voting for others.  We want them to share our trust in the outcome of our elections.

Use the menu on the left to navigate between the pages in our Voting Resource section.  


Register to Vote.
Then Check Your Registration.


"Democracy is not a spectator sport."
- Marian Wright Edelman

Registering to vote is the first step to participating in our democracy. If you have moved, changed your name, or have not voted in a while, you might need to reregister. The LWV recommends that all Wisconsin voters check to be sure that their voter registration is current.
