Referendum Questions - Vote “YES!”
Explanation as to why these constitutional changes are on the ballot. Governor Evers twice vetoed bills that had been put before him on these issues, so, the only way around this Governor was to place these referendums on the ballot. Many people have worked very hard to stop the influence of outside billionaires from taking control of our elections. Wisconsin statutes clearly outline that “elected officials” are to run our elections, period, end of story. So your “YES” vote on these two referendums is extremely important. They appear on the backside of the ballot, so make sure you don’t miss them.
These are the Referendum Questions;
Question 1 – VOTE YES
“Use of private funds in election administration. Shall section 7 (1) of article III of the constitution be created to provide that private donations and grants may NOT be applied for, accepted, expended, or used in connection with the conduct of any primary, election, or referendum?”
Prohibits any level of government in the state from applying or accepting non-governmental funds or equipment for election administration. A “yes” vote on this referendum would amend the Wisconsin Constitution to essentially STOP “Zuckerbucks” from influencing our election administration here in Wisconsin.
Question 2 – VOTE YES
“Election officials. Shall section 7 (2) of article III of the constitution be created to provide that ONLY election officials designated by law may perform tasks in the conduct of primaries, elections, and referendums?”
Provides that only election officials designated by law may administer elections. A “yes” vote on this question will amend the Wisconsin Constitution to make clear that ONLY election officials designated by law may administer elections. Again, this is an effort to STOP Zuckerberg & Co. from embedding non-governmental officials in our election administration and operations.
