While the country’s largest cities like Chicago and Washington D.C. are on high alert for possible Election Day disturbances, Kewaunee County Sheriff Matt Joski is not expecting any problems. Municipalities can ask to have police officers or sheriff’s deputies on-site, but Joski said as of Tuesday morning that no one had made that request. Law enforcement agencies will be on standby just in case conflicts arise at area polling places.

Some businesses in other parts of the country are boarding up their windows in the anticipation of possible violence. Joski said he is confident local residents will act respectfully no matter who wins or loses.

He applauded the efforts of poll workers in Kewaunee County for doing what was needed to move people through the voting booths in an efficient matter.
