Wisconsin Voters Approve Constitutional Amendment During Tuesday's Election

Thursday, November 7th, 2024 -- 9:00 AM

(Bob Hague, Wisconsin Radio Network) Voters approve a constitutional amendment that bars non-citizens from voting in Wisconsin.

According to Bob Hague with the Wisconsin Radio Network, the amendment was approved overwhelmingly, garnering the support of just over 70 percent of Wisconsin voters on Tuesday after being approved by two consecutive sessions of the Legislature.

Its Republican authors maintained it was necessary to prevent non-citizens from voting in local elections, something that has been allowed in the District of Columbia and a handful of municipalities in other states.
