reporting
We expect voter outreach volunteers to track and report their activity. Please print a log form to use at your event, then enter the data online after the event.
Outreach Programs
Links on the sidebar will take you to separate pages for Apartment Outreach, Library Liaisons, High School Voter Education (note: site is under construction!), Municipal Clerk Liaisons, Senior Center Liaisons and assisting UW Students. We are also a lead partner in the Dane County Voter ID Coalition, which manages the Voter Helpline, among other projects.

Planning a voter outreach event? Adapt this planning guide to your own event.
A “How to Vote” flyer in English and Spanish, with general information about voting (not election-specific). If you are looking for pre-printed copies for an outreach project, please contact Kerry in our office at least a week in advance of when you need them.
Review our Voter Service Central Materials Catalog to see what print materials are available to use at outreach events. Note LWV materials are only available for use with the permission of the LWVDC. Any materials that use the LWV name or logo must be preapproved.
If you encounter technical issues when assisting voters with MyVote, please report the problem, so we can use your experience to improve our training and alert the WEC to issues with the software.
