Wisconsin Voters Support GOP-Backed Measures to Regulate Election Funding

TL;DR Summary
Wisconsin voters approved two GOP-backed constitutional amendments that ban the use of private funds in election administration and narrow the role of election workers. Critics argue that the measures stem from unfounded conspiracy theories, while supporters claim they will eliminate "dark money" from elections and streamline administration. The measures have roots in claims about the 2020 election and were referred to voters after the Democratic governor vetoed similar laws. The impact of these amendments could affect election administration and funding in the critical battleground state.
