The complaint alleges that Wisconsin violated UOCAVA because it did not provide all of the protections of UOCAVA to those voters who are residing overseas temporarily. UOCAVA does not distinguish between voters who reside overseas but intend to return, and those voters who reside overseas for an indefinite period of time. Wisconsin state law, however, differentiated between permanent and temporarily overseas voters in terms of the protections they receive under UOCAVA. The agreement requires Wisconsin to allow temporarily overseas voters to receive their ballots electronically and utilize a Federal write-in absentee ballot vote, if necessary, like other UOCAVA voters. The agreement requires the changes to be implemented in time for the federal primary election on August 14, 2018 and the federal general election on November 6, 2018. The agreement also specifies that Defendants will take the actions necessary to ensure these UOCAVA protections in all future federal elections.
