MADISON, Wis. (AP) — Wisconsin voters on Tuesday were deciding on two Republican-backed constitutional amendments, one of which would ban the use of private money to run elections in reaction to grants received in 2020 that were funded by Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg.
Democrats opposed both measures, which they argued would make it more difficult to conduct elections in the presidential battleground state.
Polls are open 7 a.m. to 8 p.m. following an early, in-person absentee voting period that began two weeks ago.
