Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Identification required for voting
Under current law, any person who is a U.S. citizen, who is at least 18 years of
age, and who has resided in a ward or election district in this state for at least ten
days before the election at which the person is voting may vote in that ward or
election district at that election unless the person is disqualified from voting, in
certain cases specified by law, as the result of a felony conviction or an adjudication
of incompetency. With limited exceptions, a person must register before voting and
in certain cases must provide proof of residence. With certain limited exceptions,
before being permitted to vote at any polling place, an eligible elector currently must
provide his or her name and address. If the elector is not registered, the elector must
provide a specified form of proof of residence in order to register. If an elector is not
able to present any required proof of residence, as an alternative, current law
permits an elector's registration information to be corroborated by another qualified
elector who resides in the same municipality. In addition, an elector other than a
military elector or an overseas elector, as defined by federal law, who registers by
mail and who has not voted in an election in this state must provide one of the forms
of identification specified by federal law, or a copy thereof if voting by absentee ballot,
in order to be permitted to vote. Corroboration may not be substituted for this
identification requirement, but an elector who cannot provide the required
identification may cast a provisional ballot. The municipal clerk or board of election
commissioners must determine whether electors casting provisional ballots are
qualified to vote by 4 p.m. on the day after an election.
With certain limited exceptions, this substitute amendment requires each
eligible elector who attempts to register or to vote at the polls on election day to
present "proof of identification." Under the substitute amendment, "proof of
identification" means an identification document that contains the name of the
individual to whom the document was issued, which name conforms to the
individual's voter registration, if the individual is required to register to vote, and
that contains a photograph of the individual, except as otherwise permitted by the
substitute amendment (see below). "Identification" means a) one of the following
documents issued to the individual that is unexpired or if expired has expired after
the date of the most recent general election: an operator's license issued by the
Wisconsin Department of Transportation (DOT), an identification card issued by
DOT, an identification card issued by a U.S. uniformed service, or a U.S. passport;
b) a certificate of U.S. naturalization that was issued not earlier than two years
before the date of an election at which it is presented; c) an unexpired driving receipt
issued by DOT (see below); d) an unexpired identification card receipt issued by DOT;
or e) an identification card issued by a federally recognized Indian tribe in this state.
A person whose address is confidential as a result of domestic abuse, sexual assault,
or stalking or in certain cases a person who has been required by a law enforcement
officer to surrender his or her license (see below) is exempted from the requirement.
If a person has applied to DOT for a driver's license or identification card, the person
may also present the unexpired driving receipt or identification card receipt (DOT
receipt) that DOT issues to the person while the application is processed. Under the
substitute amendment, any person who applies for an absentee ballot, except a
military or overseas elector, as defined by federal law, or a person whose address is
confidential as a result of domestic abuse, sexual assault, or stalking, must also
provide proof of identification or a copy thereof unless: 1) the person has already
provided a copy of his or her proof of identification in connection with an absentee
ballot cast at a previous election and has not changed his or her name or address since
that election; 2) the person has been required by a law enforcement officer to
surrender his or her license (see below); 3) the person is indefinitely confined, in
which case the person may submit a statement signed by the person who witnesses
his or her absentee ballot verifying his or her identity; or 4) the person is an occupant
of any nursing home, or is an occupant of a community-based residential facility,
retirement home, adult family home, or residential care apartment complex where
a municipality sends special voting deputies, in which case the person may submit
a statement signed by the deputies verifying his or her identity. The substitute
amendment continues current requirements for certain electors to provide proof of
residence in order to register or to vote, but discontinues the use of corroborating
electors to verify residence. Under the substitute amendment, if a person who votes
at a polling place fails to provide proof of identification, the person may vote
provisionally. If a person votes by absentee ballot and fails to provide proof of
identification or a copy thereof, unless exempted from the requirement, the ballot is
treated as a provisional ballot. A provisional ballot is marked by the poll workers,
who immediately contact the municipal clerk or board of election commissioners.
The person may then provide the required proof of identification either at the polling
place before the closing hour or at the office of the clerk or board. If the person does
not provide the required identification to the clerk or board by 4 p.m. on the Friday
following the election, the person's vote is not counted. If a person receives a citation
from a law enforcement officer in any jurisdiction that is dated within 60 days of the
date of an election and is required to surrender his or her Wisconsin driver's license
at the time the citation is issued, the elector may present an original copy of the
citation or notice of intent to revoke or suspend the elector's driver's license in lieu
of his or her driver's license or, if the elector is voting an absentee ballot by mail, may
enclose a copy of the citation or notice in lieu of a copy of his or her driver's license.
In this case, the substitute amendment provides that the elector's ballot is received
and counted if otherwise valid, but the ballot is marked so it can be identified during
the canvassing and recount process if the validity of the ballot is questioned.
The substitute amendment also directs the Government Accountability Board,
in conjunction with the first regularly scheduled primary and election at which the
voter identification requirements created by the substitute amendment initially
apply, to conduct a public informational campaign for the purpose of informing
prospective voters of the voter identification requirements created by the substitute
amendment. In addition, the substitute amendment directs the board to conduct an
ongoing outreach effort to identify and contact groups of electors who may need
assistance in obtaining or renewing documents that constitute proof of identification
for voting purposes and to provide assistance in obtaining or renewing those
documents.
The voting identification requirement under the substitute amendment
initially applies to voting at the 2012 spring primary. The substitute amendment
also provides that an elector who votes at a polling place at an election held after the
substitute amendment becomes law but before the date of the 2012 spring primary
shall be requested to present proof of identification but if the elector fails to do so, his
or her ballot will still be counted if the elector is otherwise qualified. The substitute
amendment directs election officials to provide information to electors who do not
present proof of identification at elections held prior to the date of the 2012 spring
primary so that the electors will be prepared to provide proof of identification at
future elections.
Issuance of operator's licenses and identification cards
This substitute amendment also permits an elector who is eligible to obtain a
Wisconsin identification card to obtain the card from DOT free of charge if the elector
is a U.S. citizen who will be at least 18 years of age on the date of the next election
and the elector requests that the card be provided without charge for purposes of
voting.
Under
2007 Wisconsin Act 20 (the biennial budget act), certain provisions
specified in the federal REAL ID Act are incorporated into state law when DOT
provides notice that it is ready to implement the federal REAL ID Act. Among these
provisions is the requirement that DOT follow certain procedures in processing
applications for driver's licenses and identification cards and that each driver's
license and identification card include a photograph.
This substitute amendment allows DOT, upon the implementation of the
federal REAL ID Act in Wisconsin, to process applications for driver's licenses and
identification cards in a manner other than that required by REAL ID if the driver's
licenses and identification cards are marked to indicate that they are not REAL ID
compliant and DOT processes the applications in compliance with DOT practices and
procedures applicable immediately prior to implementation of REAL ID. An
applicant for a REAL ID noncompliant driver's license or identification card will still
be required to provide to DOT: 1) an identification document that includes either the
applicant's photograph or both the applicant's full legal name and date of birth; 2)
documentation showing the applicant's date of birth, which may be the same as item
1); 3) proof of the applicant's social security number or verification that the applicant
is not eligible for a social security number; 4) documentation showing the applicant's
name and address of principal residence; and 5) documentary proof that the
applicant is a U.S. citizen or is otherwise lawfully present in the United States.
However, in processing an application for a REAL ID noncompliant driver's license
or identification card, DOT is not required to meet the standards for document
retention and verification that are imposed for REAL ID compliant products.
Current law provides for limited exceptions allowing DOT to issue a driver's
license that does not contain a photograph of the license holder, including, by DOT
rule, a religious belief exception. There are no similar photograph exceptions under
current law for identification cards. Under current law, after the implementation of
REAL ID, all REAL ID compliant driver's licenses and identification cards must
contain a photograph.
Under this substitute amendment, until the implementation of the federal
REAL ID Act, the photograph exception for driver's licenses continues and a new
religious belief photograph exception is created for identification cards. After the
implementation of REAL ID, this substitute amendment creates a religious belief
photograph exception for REAL ID noncompliant driver's licenses and identification
cards.
Absentee voting in residential care apartment complexes and adult family
homes
Currently, municipalities must send two special voting deputies (one
designated by each major political party if the party wishes) to conduct absentee
voting in nursing homes. Municipalities may also send the deputies to conduct
absentee voting in community-based residential facilities and retirement homes
that qualify for the service in accordance with standards prescribed by law. This
substitute amendment permits municipal clerks and boards of election
commissioners to send two special voting deputies to conduct absentee voting in
adult family homes and residential care apartment complexes that qualify for the
service in accordance with similar standards prescribed by law.
Currently, with limited exceptions, an elector must be registered in order to
vote in an election in this state. In order to register, an elector must provide certain
information on a registration form and affirm the correctness of the information with
his or her signature. If an elector is unable, due to physical disability, to sign his or
her registration form, the elector may have another person sign on his or her behalf.
An elector who has not previously registered may register at the polling place serving
his or her residence on election day. Currently, when appearing to vote, an elector
must provide his or her name and address to the election officials and in some cases
must also provide proof of residence. Currently, an absentee elector may vote by mail
or at the office of the municipal clerk of the municipality where he or she resides. The
names of registered electors are checked against a poll list consisting of the names
of registered electors and the names of other electors are entered on a separate list.
Signature requirement for electors voting in person
This substitute amendment provides, with limited exceptions, that an elector
must also enter his or her signature on the poll list or other separate list when voting
in person at an election. Under the substitute amendment, the election officials or,
if an elector votes at the office of the municipal clerk or board of election
commissioners, the municipal clerk or a deputy, must require each elector to enter
his or her signature on the poll list or other separate list before being permitted to
vote. If an elector registers at a polling place on election day, the officials must
require the elector to enter the elector's signature on a separate list. The substitute
amendment also provides that if an elector, due to physical disability, authorized
another elector to sign his or her registration form on his or her behalf, the elector
is exempt from the signature requirement. In addition, if an elector signed his or her
registration form but claims to be unable, due to physical disability, to enter his or
her signature on the poll list or other separate list when voting at a particular
election, the substitute amendment permits the election officials or the municipal
clerk or board of election commissioners or a deputy to waive the signature
requirement if they find that, due to physical disability, the elector is unable to enter
his or her signature.
Durational residency requirement for voting
Under current law, with certain limited exceptions, an individual must be a
resident of this state and of the municipality and ward, if any, where the elector is
voting for ten days before an election to be eligible to vote in the election. This
substitute amendment increases this durational residency requirement to 28 days.
Under the substitute amendment, if an elector who does not meet this residency
requirement formerly resided at another location in this state within the 27-day
period preceding an election, the elector may vote at that location if the elector is
otherwise qualified to vote at that location.
