Voter ID in Wisconsin: What to know about Wisconsin's April 1 referendum [View all]

Voters across Wisconsin will decide during the April 1 election whether to add a voter identification requirement to the state’s Constitution.

Under a 2011 state law, Wisconsin voters already have to present an acceptable form of photo ID.

But, if it’s approved by a majority of voters this spring, a constitutional provision would help cement that requirement, and protect it against future legal challenges.

The ballot question asks voters whether they want to amend the Wisconsin Constitution to mandate that voters “present valid photographic identification verifying their identity in order to vote in any election, subject to exceptions which may be established by law?”
