Life is full of uncertainty at the moment. The Wisconsin Elections Commission is recommending that if you want to vote in the April 7 election you should consider voting with an absentee ballot in case you are unable to vote in person or choose not to go to your polling place from health concerns.
There are many different deadlines in the state for registering, voting, etc. for the upcoming year. If you are not registered to vote you may do so online through Monday, March 18 online. If you are registered to vote you may request an absentee ballot for this election by requesting it from your local clerk by 5 PM on April 2. You may also request an absentee ballot online. You will need a photo ID to request an absentee ballot.
Questions about the voting process, where to vote, who is on your ballot, and whether you are registered can be answered at https://myvote.wi.gov. All other questions about elections can be found at the Elections Commission site.
