Are you ready to enter the polls? Deadline to register to vote at the Municipal Clerk’s office is TODAY!

The Wisconsin deadline to register to vote in the Municipal Clerk’s office is 5 p.m. on Nov. 2. You can also register to vote at your polling place on Nov. 6, the day of the election.

When registering, you must provide proof of residence. The Government Accountability Board recognizes a student’s fee statement as proof of enrollment for registration along with a current student ID. Students can access the fee statement form from the My.Carthage portal to register to vote in Wisconsin. Follow these steps to access your proof of enrollment: 

• Log into your My Carthage portal: https://my.carthage.edu/ICS/
• Click on the “Finances” Tab
• On the left menu, select “My Account Information”
• Select “Course and Fee Statement”
• From the drop down menu, select “Fall 2018” (this should default)
• Select “Generate My Course and Fee Statement”
• Click on the PDF to view and print your fee statement
• Bring your fee statement to the polling station with your Voter ID

Out-of-state students who are registered to vote in Wisconsin but don’t have a Wisconsin drivers license or state ID can obtain a valid voter ID card from the Division of Student Affairs in the Todd Wehr Center. Click here for more information
