AB 594

Currently, in addition to other qualifications, an individual must be at least 18

years of age to vote at an election in this state. This bill allows an individual who is

17 years of age to vote at a primary if the individual will be 18 years of age on the date

on which the election following the primary is held.

Because the bill extends the right to vote to a class of individuals beyond the

class currently entitled to vote under the Wisconsin Constitution, the bill cannot

become law unless, following enactment, it is approved by the majority of the votes

cast at a statewide referendum to be held at the November 2024 general election.
