| What's new with the new Voter ID Law? http://gab.wi.gov/elections-voting/photo-id Beginning in 2012, you cannot receive a ballot until you have met ID requirements. Wisconsin does not issue a separate "Voter ID" card. Instead you must use one of the photo IDs listed below. YOUR PHOTO ID DOES NOT NEED TO SHOW A CURRENT ADDRESS.
Acceptable Forms of Photo IDs: these IDs may not have expired earlier than the date of the last November election Other Acceptable Forms of Photo IDs: The Certificate of Naturalization issued within the last two years. Unexpired Wisconsin driver license or state ID receipt. ID card issued by a federally recognized Indian Tribe in Wisconsin. Unexpired ID issued by a Wisconsin accredited university or college that contains an issuance date, student signature, and expiration date within two years of issuance, along with a separate document showing proof of current enrollment.
If you are eligible to vote but do not have an acceptable ID, you may obtain a FREE ID for purposes of voting. Please visit http://gab.wi.gov and click "Voter Photo ID" for more information.
