Every voter in Sturgeon Bay will cast ballots at the same place for next week’s spring primary. The city announced on Tuesday it was consolidating its Election Day operations to just one location at the former Jaycee clubhouse that now houses PATH of Door County. City Clerk Stephanie Reinhardt says a construction project at city hall and the lack of contested elections contributed to the decision.

In-person absentee voting has been going on for over a week and will continue through the end of this week. Reinhardt says however that only a few people have taken advantage of the opportunity. She also emphasized that this arrangement is only for the spring primary. The region does have its share of contested primaries including races for the Gibraltar School Board and Kewaunee City Council. The spring primary is set for February 16th.
