Senate Bill 510 mandates that all nonjudicial elective state officials in Wisconsin, including the governor, lieutenant governor, and state legislators, must serve as election officials during their first full term and once every three years thereafter. This service must occur in any municipality, excluding elections where the official is a candidate. The bill stipulates that these officials must be appointed and trained like other election officials and serve a minimum of eight hours on election day without compensation. Additionally, officials who are physically unable to serve can provide a sworn statement from a physician to be exempted from this requirement, but they must still attend training every two years.

Furthermore, the bill prohibits the legislature and its committees from meeting on any day when an election, other than a special election, is taking place for local, state, or national offices. This provision aims to ensure that elected officials are available to fulfill their duties as election officials and to maintain the integrity of the electoral process. The bill introduces new sections to the statutes, specifically 7.335 and 13.02 (5), to formalize these requirements and restrictions.
