Break Down the Barriers to Voting

If you don't have a Wisconsin ID...

Pick up your Voter ID at Union South!

Vote in the Election on February 16th

With the presidential primaries coming up in April and the general election in November, ASM has been working to ensure all students have the correct forms of identification and proof of residency to vote.

ASM will be located around campus in Memorial and College Libraries, Dejope and Gordon's Dining Halls, and the Unions registering voters from February 17th-March 16th.
