Milwaukee’s fall primary election is coming up, with in-person voting set for Tuesday, August 11th. Here is everything you need to know about the election:
In-Person Early Voting
Early voting will run from July 28 to Aug. 9 at three locations:
- The Zeidler Municipal Building, 841 N. Broadway
- Midtown Center, 5700 W. Capitol Drive
- Manitoba School, 4040 W. Forest Home Ave
The facilities will be open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on weekdays and 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on weekends.
Voting on election day will be offered at far more locations this fall compared with April, when just five of the city’s 180 polling sites were open. The city will have at least 160 polling places in August and possibly more than that in November, Woodall-Vogg said.
