Voting information
Voting is a social responsibility embodied in the mission of UW-Eau Claire. There are several opportunities to exercise your right to vote on campus.
A student must register to vote before he or she can vote at the polls. Registration may be done in advance or at the polls on election day. The voter registration form and instructions, including documentation needed to register, are available online.
During local, state and national elections, UW-Eau Claire is the voting site for Wards 20 and 24 of the city of Eau Claire:
- Students living in the upper campus residence halls reside in Ward 20.
- Students living in the lower campus residence halls reside in Ward 24.
Students living off campus can check the city of Eau Claire Web site to determine their wards and polling locations, or follow these links to maps of wards in which the majority of UW-Eau Claire students reside:
- Ward 3 (Third Ward area)
- Wards 2, 5, 6 (Randall Park/Courthouse area)
- Wards 17, 21 (Imperial Circle area)
- Wards 20, 24 (campus residence halls)
- Wards 31, 32 (downtown and East Side Hill area)
In addition, students are encouraged to cast their votes during campus elections during the year (see links below).
