BadgersVote!

BadgersVote is a campus-wide initiative that strives to provide University of Wisconsin–Madison students with everything they need to know in order to participate in their elections. The BadgersVote Coalition is comprised of many individuals, units and departments across campus and the city of Madison.

To get involved, click here!

College students have a choice to vote either in their “home” state, or their “school” state, as most meet residence  requirements to vote in Wisconsin.

Why vote in Wisconsin as an out-of-state student? 

Your voting process will be easy! You can vote in person early or on election day, and don’t have to worry about an absentee ballot arriving on time to your home state

You will be voting in the state and locality where you spend the most time and see the daily news.

Voter Identification & Requirements

Acceptable forms of identification include a valid Wisconsin driver’s license, Wisconsin state ID, U.S. passport, U.S. Uniformed Services card, Veterans Affairs ID, tribal ID or Certificate of Naturalization.

The address on your ID does not matter; the purpose of presenting your ID at the polls is to prove your identity. 

Students without one of the forms of ID listed above can obtain a UW–Madison voter-compliant ID card free of charge, which is valid on its own if it’s unexpired. If your voter-compliant ID card is expired, present it at the polls together with a Voter Enrollment Verification letter .

To get a voter compliant ID by electronically, Email wiscard_id@union.wisc.edu from your wisc.edu email address, put “Voter ID Needed” in the subject line, and attach a picture of your Wiscard to the email.

You will receive a PDF of the voter-compliant ID, which you must print out and sign.
