Here's a convenient way to have your say:
Wisconsin offers early voting -- so you can head to the polls before Election Day. It's a great option if you're planning to volunteer on Election Day, prefer to bypass long lines, or have a busy schedule and need the flexibility. The best part is, you don't need a special reason to vote early. You can just go vote.

Early voting sites vary by county, so check with your local election officials to find out where you can vote early.
