"Wisconsin Voters Approve GOP-Backed Election Rule Amendments After 'Zuckerbucks' Scrutiny"

Wisconsin voters approved two referendums to change the state Constitution, prohibiting clerks from using private grants for elections and specifying that only appointed election officials can conduct election tasks. The referendums were proposed by Republicans in response to scrutiny of private grants used by clerks during the pandemic, particularly those funded by Mark Zuckerberg. Despite concerns from Democrats and liberal groups, the majority of voters supported the referendums, reflecting a trend of voter approval for constitutional changes in Wisconsin.
