Celebrate National Voter Education Week
The Madison City Clerk’s Office encourages voters to celebrate National Voter Education Week, October 7-11.
Monday – Register to Vote
Verify your voter registration at https://MyVote.wi.gov. If you have moved since you last registered, even if it is to a different unit in the same building, you will need to update your voter registration.
If you have a Wisconsin driver license or Wisconsin ID and your address is updated with the DMV, you may register online at https://MyVote.wi.gov. Otherwise, you may register at any Madison Public Library with proof of address.
Tuesday – Get to Know Your Ballot
Find out what is on your ballot. Research the candidates and referenda questions. To see your sample ballot, visit https://MyVote.wi.gov and select “What’s On My Ballot” at the top of the screen.
Wednesday – Make a Plan to Vote
The Clerk’s Office has created a checklist you can use to determine which options work best for you.
Thursday – Understand the Process
The Wisconsin Elections Commission has produced an Elections 101 video series. These videos explain election processes and security procedures.
Friday – Share with Your Family and Friends
Encourage your friends, family, and neighbors to verify that they are registered to vote, get to know their ballot, make a plan to vote, and understand the election process.
The goal of the City Clerk’s Office is that each eligible voter will be able to cast a ballot and have that ballot counted.
