2006 referemdum.  Only a marriage between one man and one woman shall be valid or recognized as a marriage in this state. A legal status identical or substantially similar to that of marriage for unmarried individuals shall not be valid or recognized in this state.

Approved by nearly 60% of the voters.

Excerpt:   Asked by Public Policy Polling if same-sex marriage should be allowed, 44% of Wisconsin voters said yes, 46% said no, and 10% said they weren’t sure.
