ELECTIONS

The Wisconsin Elections Project provides information on election laws, campaign finance, election results and analysis, lobbying, and redistricting. LRB analysts and attorneys compile and research information relating to candidates for legislative and statewide offices in primary and general elections, state and local redistricting, legislative action on campaign and elections bills, historical data on Wisconsin elections, and other resources for understanding Wisconsin campaigns and elections. The Wisconsin Elections Project serves as a clearinghouse for information on state agency actions and federal and state court decisions, as well as a tracking system for state and national legislation affecting Wisconsin campaigns and elections.
