Guest post by Jefferson Davis

Madison – Wisconsin is joining a growing list of states, cities, counties and other populated areas across America to permanently ban Ranked Choice Voting.

Twin Constitutional Amendments to ban Ranked Choice Voting were recently introduced in the Assembly with  AJR101 (click here – https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2023/proposals/ajr101) and Senate with SJR 94 (click here – https://docs.legis.wisconsin.gov/2023/proposals/ajr101) in the last 2-4 weeks with strong support from the Republican Leadership Teams and General Membership.

In Wisconsin, the legislative process requires a constitutional amendment to be heard at the Committee level for public comment and is then voted on in Committee before it is forwarded to the entire Assembly and Senate for consideration during a Floor Session.  A constitutional amendment also has to be approved in two consecutive Sessions and can not be vetoed by the Governor’s Office.   » READ MORE
