Four-Year Voter Record Maintenance Information

On April 29, 2011, the Government Accountability Board’s Elections Division mailed postcards to approximately 240,000 Wisconsin registered voters who have not voted in the past four years.

The postcard is titled “Notice of Suspension,” and asks voters if they wish to remain active in the Statewide Voter Registration System (SVRS).  Voters have one month to contact their municipal clerk with a return postcard to maintain their active status on the voter list.  Voters who do not respond to the postcard, or whose postcard is returned as undeliverable by the Post Office, will be marked as inactive on the voter list.

More information about the postcards is available here.

Examples of the postcards are attached below.
