DISABILITY ACCESS:
Our polling places have been audited for accessibility.  Nonetheless, voters with health issues, mobility issues, a disability, or difficulty waiting in line may vote from the curb of their polling place. Send someone in to the polling place to notify the poll workers that you are a curbside voter. You may also use the doorbell which is located on the "curbside voting" sign near the entrance of the polling place. If you do not have someone to send in to the polling place, contact the Clerk’s Office at  or 262-653-4020 to make arrangements to vote curbside

For federal elections, absentee ballots will be in the mail beginning 47 days before the election. For elections that do not include federal offices, absentee ballots will be in the mail beginning three weeks before Election Day. All absentee ballots are sent to the polls to be counted on Election Day.

Voters may verify their registration, polling place, sample ballot, and absentee ballot status at myvote.wi.gov

The deadline to request an absentee ballot is 5:00 pm the Thursday before the election, but we recommend making your request as early as possible so there is adequate time to mail the ballot back to the Clerk's Office.
