2022 Advisory Referendum

On August 23, 2022 the Waukesha County Board passed a resolution put forward by Supervisor Peter Wolff to conduct an advisory referendum regarding elections.

An advisory referendum allows voters to voice their preference and allows elected officials to gauge public opinion on the issue being presented.

Two questions will appear on the 2022 ballot:

Question 1: Should the Wisconsin Legislature prepare and place on the statewide ballot a Constitutional Amendment requiring that election administration, access to ballots, and counting of ballots be nearly uniform as practicable?

Question 2: Should the Wisconsin Legislature prepare and place on the statewide ballot a Constitutional Amendment prohibiting non-governmental entities and any individual other than election officials designated by law from funding, managing, or performing any task in election administration?
