What is “Uninstructed”?
My understanding is you’re voting for your delegate(s) to be free agents that can pick whoever at the convention. So basically that you care enough to vote but not enough to vote for someone
Voting experience: just got in before the big rush of people after work, no issues with ID (first big election in WI). I’m in a pretty blue area though.
One travesty: THEY RAN OUT OF “I VOTED TODAY” STICKERS
I HATE when that happens.
=(
Yep. I looked it up and here is an explanation:

Wonder if Wisconsin is the only state to use uninstructed on the ballot as a way to allow state delegates to choose the party’s nominee. The Wisconsin GAB (Government Accountability Board) is only in business until June 2016 or has already been disbanded because Scott Walker signed a law to get rid of it last December. Apparently the board was non-partisan and was one of those good gov’t agencies meant to oversee campaign finance laws among other things. Beginning in June, two new partisan commissions will replace it, set up with Walker’s political cronies in time for the general election it seems.
