Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker Do Not Change Same Day Voter Registration Rules

Stop Legislative Proposal to Change Wisconsin Same Day Voter Registration Rules.

Why is this important?

Wisconsin is one of nine states that allow voters to register at their polling place on the day of the election, and that's often credited with helping make Wisconsin's voting rate one of the highest in the country. Since the Nov. 6, 2012 election, both Walker and incoming Assembly Speaker Robin Vos (R-Rochester) have said they're considering ending the practice, which goes back to 1976 in the state. There are no evidence or facts as to why this existing Wisconsin 1976 rule should be changed.
