NORTHEAST WI (Wisconsin Radio Network)- Despite some bad weather, voting in today’s Supreme Court primary is expected to go on as planned.
Outside of the governor postponing the election, Reid Magney with the Wisconsin Elections Commission says polling locations around the state should open as planned at 7 a-m.
“Your polling place should be open. That said, this is a low turnout election. There is no need to be there early, and no need to beat the line. If the weather looks bad in the morning, try to wait a little while.”
Magney said it may also be a good idea to go after work since the polls are open until 8:00pm.
Voter turnout for the last five Supreme Court primaries has averaged just a little over seven-percent.
The only statewide race on the ballot is a three-way primary for the state Supreme Court between Milwaukee County Judge Rebecca Dallet, Sauk County Judge Michael Screnock, and Madison attorney Tim Burns. The top two will go on to face each other in the April election.
