How do we calculate my vote power?

What goes into the rating for ballot measures: Representation: how much weight one vote carries here compared with a statewide vote — the smaller the district, the more each vote counts. You have more power in ballot measures because you vote directly on the policy.

Representation: High · 67 out of 100

This district is a small slice of its state, so each vote here carries much more weight than a vote in a statewide race. About 139,634 people live here.

Show the representation math

score = 50 + 50 × ln(state population ÷ this district's) ÷ ln(50,000) = 50 + 50 × ln(5,914,872 ÷ 139,634) ÷ ln(50,000) = 67.31, measured against a statewide vote in WI (grades: 66+ high, 55+ above average, 33+ average, otherwise low; a statewide race is the 50 baseline)

High representation + a direct vote on the policy → My vote power: High.

Ballot Measure

Supports: Public Education Quality

The referendum would let Green Bay Area Public School District exceed Wisconsin's revenue limit for four years: by $29 million in 2027-28, $36 million in 2028-29, $44 million in 2029-30, and $49 million in 2030-31. The non-recurring revenue would fund operations and maintenance. The district describes the plan as tax-rate neutral because it maintains the current voter-approved levy level.

More about this measure

A YES vote means

The district could collect the specified amounts above the state revenue limit for operations and maintenance during the four listed school years.
