Early voting: You may vote in person at Village Hall now through Friday, March 29. You may also cast an absentee ballot by mail, but it must be postmarked no later than Election Day, Tuesday, April 2. Here is more information on voting early in Wisconsin.

Voter ID: Because of recent court rulings, Wisconsin's Voter ID law will not be enforced and you do not need an identification to vote. If you are registering to vote, you will need to bring a proof of residence. For more information on the Voter ID law, visit the state's election website.
