Polls open at 7am, close at 8pm, you have plenty of time . . . its a partisan primary, so you have to choose which party you are voting for and only vote for that party’s ballot – you can’t vote for a few of each.
Here’s what everyone has been asking me – I’m voting for Mike McCabe for governor – I’ve had his yard sign in my yard since spring! Clean government platform is the primary reason, but I’ve been a supporter since he ran for assembly (?) years ago . . .
Here’s what you need to know!

Just moved or in the process of moving?
Wisconsin requires 10 days to establish residency at a new address. Temporary absence does not affect residency. Time spent away from your residence still counts toward the 10 day residency requirement as long as you intend to return. So, when voting in the August 14, 2018 primary election:
• If you move by August 4, you would register and vote at your new address.
• If you move on or after August 5, you would vote at your old address.
