Wisconsin's partisan primary election took place today, with voters casting ballots for state assembly, senate, and federal offices, as well as local contests and two statewide referenda. Megan Wolf, administrator of the Wisconsin Elections Commission, emphasized the collaborative effort of over 1,850 clerks and thousands of poll workers across the state to ensure a smooth election process.
Wolf noted that while the commission does not register voters or administer polling, it plays a crucial role in supporting local clerks and addressing voter inquiries. She reported that the election is proceeding smoothly, despite a ballot error affecting voters in the town of Summit, Douglas County. The ballots incorrectly listed Assembly District 73 instead of the correct Assembly District 74 due to recent redistricting. However, Wolf reassured voters that they should continue with their voting plans without any changes.
As the election unfolds, officials encourage voters to reach out to their local clerks for any specific questions or concerns.
