Voter Photo ID Law Injunction
Two court-ordered injunctions (March 6, 2012 Order) (March 12, 2012 Order) have been placed on the photo identification requirements of 2011 Wisconsin Act 23, pending trial and further order of the court.
This affects the photo ID portions of the recent changes to state election law only. The 28 day residency requirement, elimination of the corroborating witness for voter registration, and requirement that voters sign the poll book are still in place.
The City Clerk’s Office will update this website as soon as we have any additional information.
At 8 p.m. on Election night, April 2, 2013, the City of Madison had 1333 absentee ballots and no provisional ballots outstanding.
