Important Note Regarding 2024 General Election Candidate Tracking Documents
Due to the recent passage of 2023 Wisconsin Act 94 creating new legislative district maps, there are important considerations to keep in mind when reviewing the 2024 candidate tracking documents.
Wisconsin’s elections are highly decentralized, with elections conducted at the local level by over 1,900 local election officials in 72 counties and 1,851 municipalities. Municipal clerks in Wisconsin's towns, villages, and cities and the Board of Election Commissioners in the City of Milwaukee, are responsible for establishing polling places, acquiring voting equipment, recruiting and training poll workers, maintaining voter lists, administering absentee voting, and supervising the conduct of elections on Election Day.
Elections are administered at the state level by the Wisconsin Elections Commission (WEC). The WEC is responsible for the administrative oversight of federal and state election laws including establishing uniform standards and training local election officials.
Election Results
Official statewide and federal results take time to be collected and certified. Once they are certified, the official results are posted.
