MADISON, Wis. – Wisconsin voters saw a record number of school referendums on their ballots in 2024 and approved a record number of the funding requests, according to a report released Thursday.

The Wisconsin Policy Forum study found that school districts asked voters to sign off on a record 241 referendums, eclipsing the old record of 240 set in 1998. The referendums sought a total of $5.9 billion, a new record ask. The old record was $3.3 billion set in 2022.

Voters approved 169 referendums, breaking the old record of 140 set in 2018. They authorized a record total of $4.4 billion in new funding for school districts, including $3.3 billion in debt. The old record, unadjusted for inflation, was $2.7 billion set in 2020.

A total of 145 districts – more than a third of the state’s 421 public school districts – passed a referendum in 2024. Voters in the Madison Metropolitan School District approved the largest referendums in the state, signing off on a record $507 million debt referendum and a $100 million operating referendum.

The report attributed the rising number of referendums to increases in inflation outpacing increases in the state’s per pupil revenue limits, which restrict how much money districts can raise through property taxes and state aid.

Increasing pressure to raise wages and the loss of federal COVID-19 pandemic relief aid also have played a role, according to the report.

The Wisconsin Policy Forum is a nonpartisan, independent policy research organization.

Despite its 2024 output on the field, Wisconsin’s football program sure knows how to attract fans to Camp Randall Stadium for every home game.

The program announced on Wednesday that it has sold out Camp Randall in anticipation of its game vs. No. 1 Oregon on Nov. 16. The sellout is its fifth this season, the most at Camp Randall Stadium since 2008, per Wisconsin Athletics.

Saturday’s game will mark the first time Wisconsin welcomes a No. 1 foe into its home stadium since Oct. 16, 2010. That day, the Badgers upset No. 1 Ohio State 31-18 in a stunner.

Wisconsin also encourages all of its fans, not just the student section, to wear red and arrive early for the contest.

Not atypical for such a monumental game, Wisconsin will honor one of its greatest alumnus during Saturday’s bout. The Badgers will honor legendary running back Melvin Gordon on the 10-year anniversary of his 408-yard explosion against Nebraska on Nov. 15, 2014.

That season, Gordon finished with 2,587 rushing yards, a Big Ten record and the second-most in FBS history. He was named the Doak Walker Award winner and the runner-up for the ’14 Heisman Trophy behind Oregon quarterback Marcus Mariota.

Even though the Badgers may be outmatched against the Ducks on Saturday, Camp Randall should be alive with excitement.
