Wisconsin election managers say nearly a million people have already voted.
In Milwaukee, the city’s Election Commission said 63-thousand people have already voted. The tallies are different in each community, but local clerks all say they are seeing more interest in early voting this year. Voters can continue to cast their ballots in-person until Friday. After that, voters are going to have to wait for Election Day to actually vote.
While you are casting that vote, voters in Wisconsin will see Bobby Kennedy Jr’s name on their ballots on Election Day. The U.S. Supreme Court yesterday rejected his emergency repeal to get off the ballot in both Wisconsin and Michigan. The high court didn’t offer an explanation, it just denied the case. Lawyers for both Wisconsin and Michigan say it’s too late to take Kennedy’s name off the ballot.
When it comes to the political action, it’s an active day in our state.
We’re going to get the last look at the presidential race in Wisconsin today.
The final Marquette Law School Poll is due out this afternoon. The last poll, which came out earlier this month, gave Kamala Harris a four-point lead over former President Trump. But more recent polls say Trump is either leading or is tied with Harris here in Wisconsin.
Pollster Charles Franklin said the poll from earlier this month showed a much closer race in Wisconsin this year than either 2016 or 2020. The new poll will be unveiled at 12:15 p.m.
