You may not witness the vast lines you have seen in Green Bay and Milwaukee, but your neighbors in Door and Kewaunee counties are taking advantage of early voting ahead of Election Day. According to the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel, early voting is up in Wisconsin nearly 40 percent over 2020, with more than 292,700 people casting a ballot since Tuesday. Algoma City Clerk Erin Mueller and Sister Bay Village Clerk Heidi Teich say early in-person voting is certainly up in their communities, with more than 160 ballots cast in Sister Bay and over 200 in Algoma as of Monday morning. Teich says residents have also been quick to mail in their ballots too.

Mueller says that at the end of each day, they ensure that the ballots are safe and secure and ready to be counted on Election Day.

Early in-person voting ends on November 3rd, though hours and days may vary by municipality. All absentee ballots must be received by 8 p.m. on November 5th. Mueller and Teich both urge voters to bring in all necessary documents if you plan on voting, but especially if you plan registering too.
