Voter Service Central

Here's what you need to help voters register to vote, obtain the required
voter photo ID, and cast a ballot that will be counted.

Our volunteers are well-trained

A library liaison to a specific Dane County library works with staff to make that library a place where patrons get correct and timely information about elections and voting; assistance with registering to vote, obtaining Voter ID; information about what is on their ballot, and more.

To learn more about becoming a Library Liaison contact Kathy Fullin.

Senior liaisons “adopt” a senior center or senior living complex and work to educate their residents and visitors about voting issues.

Liaisons identify a contact at the senior center/housing complex who can authorize their actions. Liaisons ensure that relevant posters, flyers, and forms are available for residents and visitors. They may submit a brief article about voting requirements and upcoming elections for publication in the local newsletter. Liaisons may be able to arrange a time to assist seniors with online voter registration or help answer questions about what they need to register or to request an absentee ballot. Shirley Haidinger is the lead on this project.

In this project, League members residing in Dane County towns and villages offer to assist their local municipal clerks to provide information to voters. The goal is to ensure that up-to-date and accurate voting information is available to voters through municipal clerks’ offices. Liaisons, with the help of the team leader, consider how to approach their local clerks and determine what kind of feedback and assistance they are open to receiving. Based on what the clerk and liaison agree will be most helpful, clerk liaisons may offer suggestions for updating the clerk’s website, prepare articles for local newspapers, hold tabling events, or post voting information on social media. Resource material for clerk liaisons includes a list of desirable voting information for municipal clerk websites, suggestions for how to approach their municipal clerks, and periodic information about upcoming elections. 

League members living in a Dane County town or village needing a liaison, or not shown in our lists, could help us expand the impact of our program. Gail Krc is the project lead.
