Wisconsin State Districting

[Jim Crist]

Wisconsin did a major redistricting in Feb. 2024.  It doesn't look like this API reflects that yet.  Is that in the works?  I'm gonna need it soon...Thanks!

We are working on updating the redistricting data for 2024, we will update this thread when it is complete.

Thank you for your patience,

Hi there, are you still seeing this issue? If so, can you share an example?

[Jim Crist]

Yes, address 5913 Hempstead Rd, Madison, WI  53711 returns state lower Assembly chamber 78.  It should be 79 according to the new maps and myvote.wi.gov.

Thanks for your help...

Thanks Jim. It looks like the WI OCD-ids are indeed out-of-date here for the voterInfo API. However, it is still returning the correct polling locations and the correct ballot information (when available for primaries). Thanks for flagging this to us and we are working to addressing this!

We need to make a correction to the previous post: The "district" field in the VoterInfo API response is reflecting District 79, which is the expected voting district for the example address. The OCD ID in the Representatives API response is District 78, which is the expected current district for representation. This is working as expected.
