Since Wisconsin Watch’s 2026 voter guide went live about a month ago, we’ve heard from readers how valuable it is. 

A librarian in northeast Wisconsin emailed me to offer thanks: “As a public librarian it is sometimes hard to find unbiased, nonpartisan information on elections and candidates that we can share with our patrons. I am glad that we will have your guide this year!”

While I wasn’t directly involved with creating the voter guide, I couldn’t be more proud of how it turned out — it’s a user-friendly, helpful tool. And one I’ll use to conduct research before I cast my ballot. 

So I’m asking you to do us a favor: Spread the word about the voter guide. Send the link to friends and family. Post it to social media. 

And if you’re really on a roll, download free flyers or bookmarks we designed to promote the voter guide. Print them out and share them in your community. Each resource includes a QR code that will take you directly to the voter guide webpage.
