    Elections 10 Elections in Wisconsin: February 2014 through May 2015 primary, spring, general, and special elections 14th Wisconsin Volunteer Infantry Memorial at Camp Randall (Sarah Girkin) 870 WISCONSIN BLUE BOOK 2015 – 2016 ELECTIONS IN WISCONSIN I. The Wisconsin Electorate History of the Suffrage. When Wisconsin became a state in 1848, suffrage (the right to vote) was restricted to white or Indian males who were citizens of the United States or white male im- migrants in the process of being naturalized. To be eligible to vote, these men had to be at least 21 years of age and Wisconsin residents for at least one year preceding the election. Wisconsin extended suffrage to male “colored persons” in a constitutional referendum held in November 1849. In 1908, the Wisconsin Constitution was amended to require that voters had to be citizens of the United States. Women’s suffrage came with the 19th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution in 1920. (Wisconsin was one of the first states in the nation to ratify this amendment, on June 10, 1919.) The most recent major suffrage change was to lower the voting age from 21 to 18 years of age. This was accomplished by the 26th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which was ratified by the states in July 1971. Size of the Electorate. Based on information from the Department of Administration, it is estimated that in January 2014 there were about 4,416,501 potential voters 18 years of age and older. According to the Government Accountability Board, an estimated 54.8% of eligible vot- ers cast 2,422,040 ballots in the 2014 gubernatorial election.
