DO YOU NEED TO REGISTER TO VOTE, CHANGE YOUR ADDRESS, OR CHANGE YOUR NAME?

Visit MyVote Wisconsin (myvote.wi.gov).  You can avoid having to wait to register on Election Day and complete the forms ahead of time.  If you have a valid, unexpired Wisconsin Driver License or Wisconsin State ID Card, you can register online on the Wisvote system as long as your name, date of birth, and address on file with the Wisconsin Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) matches.

If you do not have the information necessary to register online, you can print the form and deliver it or mail it to the City Clerk, City of Antigo, 700 Edison Street, Antigo, WI  54409.  You will need a proof of residence document to do so.

DO YOU WANT TO REQUEST AN ABSENTEE BALLOT?

You can request an absentee ballot for the 2021 Elections after January 1, 2021.  You can request a ballot for all 2021 elections or list the specific election dates that you would like to vote absentee.  If you are indefinitely confined due to age, illness, infirmity, or disability you can request ballots be sent to you for every election until you are no longer confined or fail to return a ballot.

Requests can be completed at myvote.wi.gov.  The system will prompt you to upload an acceptable photo identification if there is not one on file.  If you cannot do this online, you can follow the manual process and either e-mail, mail, or drop off your request at the City Clerk’s Office.

VOTER REGISTRATION DRIVES – BEWARE!!

Voter registration drives will increase in 2021.  These organizations are NOT affiliated with the City of Antigo and while most organizations are legitimate, this is also an area of opportunity for scammers.  Be aware that voter registration requires personal information such as your date of birth and driver’s license number.   NEVER give personal information to anyone you do not know and trust.  The safest means to register to vote includes the following:

On-line at MyVote Wisconsin

By mail with proof of residency to: 700 Edison Street, Antigo, WI  54409

In person at your Municipal Clerk’s Office:  Open Monday – Thursday 7:30 am – 4:30 pm and Friday 7:30 am – Noon

In person at City Hall on Election Day 7:00 am – 8:00 pm

Note:  All options require acceptable proof of residency.  Links to voter information can be found on the right side of this page.
