A Wisconsin voter registration form, officially referred to as “Form EL-131,” can be completed for the purposes of voter registration or to change any outdated personal information.
Applicants will be required to show proof of residency in order to register properly. This type of documentation can be presented in the form of a Wisconsin driver’s license or State ID card. However, other forms are accepted (review the Proof of Residence pamphlet for more information).
Once proper identification has been obtained, the form may be completed and delivered to a local municipal clerk or at a polling location on election day.
