Wisconsin voters approved two referendums, rejected one

Wisconsin voters approved two referendum questions and rejected one in the Nov. 3 election. The approved measures limit the governor's partial veto power, passing 50.7% to 49.3%, and bar governments and schools from using affirmative action or DEI programs. Voters rejected a question that would have prohibited government officials from closing churches and places of worship during public health emergencies.¹

The results produced the state's first split results on constitutional amendments on the same ballot since April 1975.¹
