The Constitution Party of Wisconsin (CPoW) is an affiliate party of the national Constitution Party,[1] founded in 1991 as part of the U.S. Taxpayers Party. The Constitution Party of Wisconsin is one of five political parties recognized by the State of Wisconsin.[2] The preamble to the Party's platform states that it "recognizes that there is a God, our rights come from Him, and government exists to protect those God given rights".[3] The party recognizes the U.S. Constitution as the highest law in the land, yet under God's moral law, the Declaration of Independence, the U.S. Constitution, and the Wisconsin Constitution.
Platform[edit]
As an affiliate of the national Constitution Party, the CPoW supports the platform of the U.S. Constitution Party.[4] This is reflected in the "National Party Planks" section of the CPoW platform.[5]

Ballot access[edit]
Under Wisconsin law, a "recognized political party" is a political party that qualifies for a separate ballot or column on the ballot, based on receiving at least 1% of the votes for a statewide office at the previous November election or through acquiring the required number of petition signatures (10,000 electors, including at least 1,000 electors residing in each of at least three separate congressional districts). At the beginning of 2013, Wisconsin had three recognized political parties: Constitution, Democratic, and Republican.
