The November election is around the corner!

Hi John,

In Wisconsin, elections are won by a handful of votes. We are truly a 50-50 state and recent polling has shown that all our priority races are close. The most impactful thing we can do in these last few weeks leading up to the election is talk to voters face-to-face. 

But we can’t do this without your help. Join our organizers to knock on doors and help us get out the vote on Nov. 5. If door knocking isn’t your thing, donate today to help us reach as many voters as possible through mail pieces, digital ads, phone calls, and canvassing.

Thank you for being a conservation voter,

Check out our endorsements

Before you vote, make sure to check out our endorsements to see the candidates who will fight for clean air, clean water, and a healthy democracy. 

These candidates give us hope for a better Wisconsin – and, once elected, they will work hard to achieve it. We’re proud to endorse this most recent slate of candidates who will advocate for a brighter, cleaner, more equitable Wisconsin.

Vote NO on the constitutional amendment

On Nov. 5, voters will AGAIN see a constitutional amendment question on their ballot. This time it aims to divide Wisconsinites by pitting us against our neighbors in an attempt to diminish our freedom to vote. 

The proposed question is meant to erode our voting rights by changing the language of our state constitution related to voter eligibility from “every” citizen to “only” citizens.

We urge you to VOTE NO. 

Wisconsin already has safe and secure elections with safeguards in place to ensure only eligible voters are voting. This amendment is a way for extremists to create a problem out of thin air, that does NOT exist, and then use fear as a tactic to further divide us. It could also open the door to a more complicated registration process and discriminatory practices that will make it harder for everyone to vote.

Make your plan to vote

Before you go to the polls, make sure you have a plan to vote.

Find your polling place here and look up what’s on your ballot before you go to the polls here. 

When you vote, you will need a valid photo ID. You can use a Wisconsin driver’s license, state ID, tribal ID, or other valid photo ID. Other options for photo IDs can be found here. 

If you have not yet registered to vote, you can register in-person when you vote. Simply bring a proof of residence document with your current address on it, such as a driver’s license, letter from your tribal government, a paycheck stub or other options here. 

For questions about voting, call the Election Protection hotline at 866-OUR-VOTE.
