Wisconsin Elections Commission announces statewide campaign to promote voting website

The Wisconsin Elections Commission announced a new statewide campaign this week to promote the state’s official voting information website, myvote.wi.gov. The campaign includes digital and radio advertising, and is meant to frame the website in a more friendly manner, according to WisPolitics.

Madison City Clerk Maribeth Witzel-Behl said the clerk’s office refers voters to the website countless times every day, because of its efficiency and reliability. Along with offering voter registration, the website allows voters to see their sample ballot, polling place and status of an absentee ballot, according to Witzel-Behl.

The Elections Commission worked with Vendi Advertising in La Crosse, Wisconsin, to create positive messaging for the website, according to WisPolitics.

The website helps cultivate assuredness for voters because they don’t have to rely on someone else to check their status, Witzel-Behl said. Witzel-Behl said the campaign is helpful in combating confusion amongst Wisconsin voters, especially in a time of disinformation and misinformation surrounding elections.
